So engaging


It's official!!!! Kelvin and I are ENGAGED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's been a whirlwind night/day so I haven't had a chance to call everyone yet and thought I would spread the news by blog. Here's the story....

Around 9:30 last night we went to my neighbors' apartment for some drinks. Around midnight we decided we were done drinking and headed back to my apartment to shut it down for the evening. Kelvin said he would take Bizzy out for his last pee and I headed to my bathroom to get ready for bed. I was just done brushing my teeth when Bizzy comes running in with a bullystick in his mouth and a box tied to his collar with red ribbon. By the time I realized what was happening Kelvin handed me a card. One side was from Bizzy telling me how much he wants Kelvin to be his daddy and asking if I would marry him. The other side was from Kelvin but the tears were flowing and although I read the sweet words all I could do was knod my head and hug Kelvin. It was WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This morning we got up early, walked Biz and headed to Clayton. Mom and Dad came by for a few minutes to congratulate us on their way back from a Christmas party in Wilimington. We spent the rest of today with Kelvin's parents and brother celebrating his dad's birthday and they welcomed me to the family. It is still a little surreal when I look down at my left hand and see a ring there. I almost feel like someone is going come ask for their ring back......weird I know but I've been waiting a long time for Mr. Right :) Kelvin and I also exchanged our Christmas gifts this evening and all is right with the world.
