Well I figure I should finally make my first blog post ever in lieu of recent events, yep that's right my best friend asked me to marry him this past weekend!! Yahoo, so I can say I actually have something to blog about.
I guess I should start off by saying that Saturday I was pretty stressed and humbled because I got asked to speak in the Adult Session of Stake Conference. So Luke came to watch me speak like the good boyfriend he is and then after he found me and told me that our friend Rob and his girlfriend and some other friends were in town and they wanted us to come over and play ladder ball and croquet. So he said they were all waiting and he was going to go home and hurry and change and he just wanted me to go home and change and meet him over there so he could start setting stuff up. So I was like well why don't you just pick me up, cuz anyone who knows me knows that I don't take long to get ready, I actually pride myself in getting ready in like 10 min every morning. But he was like please just meet me there, I need to hurry. So I said fine, but really I was upset cuz I didn't want to drive alone.
So I call him when I am about to leave figuring that he would still be home and I could just go over with him, but much to my surprise, despite my super speedy changing just to prove a point, he said he was almost there and asked again if I could just him there. So I did reluctantly. When I pulled up I was still thinking about how it bugged me that he wouldn't pick me up, we don't get to spend very much time together as it is and I didn't want to have to drive home alone at night so I walk up to the door and my heart just dropped and started pounding super fast as I saw this....
So ya I instantly felt super guilty knowing what was really going on. I was being so difficult for him! So I read my card which was so cute, I always tell Luke for any holiday that I don't need anything and all I want is a homemade card... So for this special occasion he made me a very special card with a "Luke and Jenna Timeline" it was so cute and thoughtful just like Luke, Then on the back of the card he just wrote how much I meant to him and how he felt like I deserved a "superb" gift and then it said to open the door and follow the trail of orchids and truffles to my surprise....
So I opened the door and this is what I saw....
My favorite flowers which I have told him I want at our wedding with Brown and Green ribbon tied on the vases which are my colors, vanilla candles burning and my all time favorite individually boxed See's truffles ..yummm......
Then I came down stairs and playing on repeat was this Beachwood Sparks song "By Your Side" (which is the song I want to dance to at my reception) and I saw Luke standing there and It clicked, I realized why we were at Rob's house, Luke was wearing the same outfit he wore the first night we met and we met at Rob's house in his basement! haha He is so cute, like what guy remembers that? I think he only remembers cuz the first thing I said to him was "I love your brown basketball shorts, and your Purple shirt too" (thinking to myself who is this long haired hippie in the purple shirt?)
