Summer Update

I was so inspired to be a blogger and had all these great plans to once again try out the whole blog thing. I totally failed. My last and only post with all these "BIG PLANS" was back in March. Well ....SO MUCH has happen since then. The biggest and most exciting news is Braxton and I FINALLY got engaged! I know, I know "It's about time!!" I think that is the exact phrase we heard from everyone when we announced our engagement. We are both so excited that after 6 1/2 years of dating to seal the deal and get married.

We got engaged over Easter weekend while in Zions with Braxton's family. After a long day of hiking with the Peterson clan Braxton told me he needed to escape from all the madness and go for a drive. Not thinking much of it I jumped in the car and went along for what I figured was just another one of our famous drives. Driving back through Zions Park we decided to stop at this little hike we did a few years ago with all of our friends. Totally oblivious to what was about to happen we marched up to the top of the mountain and watched as the the sun set. As we were looking over the gorgeous canyon that moment that every girl dreamed of finally happen... Braxton got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. So unbelievable surprised I immediately burst into to tears as Braxton put my beautiful ring on my finger. It was so incredible and I am so extremely excited to be married and to start my life together with my best friend.
