A Beautiful Day


I have some very happy news to share...me and my wonderful, amazing boyfriend of three years are engaged!!! :) I am so unbelievably happy and can't stop smiling :) He gave me this beautiful blue sapphire ring, which was my mom's engagement ring from my stepdad. I am so happy to share this with all of you (and maybe get some wedding planning tips!). We have not set a date yet but right now we are thinking maybe next February.


Daniel asked me to marry him on Monday, which was our three-year anniversary. We had such a lovely day at the Botanical Gardens (which is where we are hoping to get married by the way), and we went to Butterfly Magic again this year, where you can see amazing butterflies from around the world.




Daniel even had a little friend stop by to say a closer hello!


I am just walking on clouds this week :)
