Yep! It Happened!!!!!!!!!

Last weekend Bo and I went ring shopping! We were a little nervous and didn't really know what to expect. Before we went shopping we went to Cafe Rio in Provo. When we pulled into the parking lot we saw this little jewelry store and wondered if that would be a good place to go. After lunch we thought we might just check it out. Turns out ring shopping was actually really fun! We had a good time with each other! The place we went was so nice! It was smaller but that was just what we needed. The workers were so nice. A girl helped us and she didn't pressure us or anything. She was really helpful to both of us. We had a wonderful day!

Sooooo... I have to say that this weekend was one of the BEST weekends I've ever had. Considering we went ring shopping I knew the proposal part was going to come soon. I really didn't expect it to be this soon though. I thought the whole process of buying the ring would take longer so it would at least be next weekend. But, I was wrong!! Today when I woke up I texted Bo to let him know I was awake. He told me he wanted to see me but his sister had his car cause she was visiting a friend so he asked if I could go to his house. I agreed of course cause I wanted to see him as well. So, I got all ready cause I didn't know if I would have time to go back to my house to get ready for church then headed to his house. When I opened the door there tons of cute papers hanging from the ceiling. The first one said "things I love about Kayla" and the rest of them had words and pictures on them. They lead to Bo's room and when I opened his door he was down on one knee holding the ring! He asked me to marry him and of course I said YES!! Considering Bo didn't propose on Saturday I thought for sure he wasn't going to do it til a later time. I was so surprised! I am so excited to start yet another chapter in our lives!





Before Bo left on his mission he started calling me Begonia Head. It has kinda stuck around and we now both call each other Begonia... I don't really know why :D So he bought me begonias. He had to search for them. Nowhere had them but Roosevelt. I love them!


The papers that hung from the ceiling were all made by Bo and his mom. They stayed awake til 5 in the morning making them. I love them! He made them so they could be made into a book after we took them off the ceiling! He is so creative!


The ring!


P.S. If anyone has wedding advice or especially dress shopping advice please let me know ;)
