I'm in love, I'm in love and I don't care who knows it!!!!

Are you surprised?? Shocked?? Jealous?? Well ladies....you should be. He's a keeper and I am the luckiest girl in the world. You may be asking yourself....how did this happen?? Sit down, grab a drink and get ready to have your socks blown off...

April 2006- Lori and Kim Johnson....introduce Brian and I to eachother...we had a great weekend. He headed back up to Rexburg, I headed back to Logan....saw eachother 1-2 more times and lost contact.

May 2009- Three years later.... Brian's parents (Lori's Brother) and my dad all happened to be up in Seattle, the same night. The plotting begins. (Thanks to a gentle nudge from Kim and Lori)

June 2009- Brian's parents can't contain themselves any longer and bring my name up to Brian. He finds my blog....adds me on facebook...and the chatting begins. . . .

July 2009- Brian and some of his family drive down from Boise to come see family in Utah for the 4th...I get a kidney stone the day before he arrives...awesome. We saw eachother the 3rd and 5th of July. I thought for sure he'd run....:)

From the 5th of July to the 24th of July....we talked EVERYDAY. In the begining it was 2 hour long convos at night....or a quick text before bed. As the days went on...our conversations lasted anywhere from 3-6.5 hours....needless to say, we NEVER slept. On July 20th I get a text from Brian, saying he quit his job. HE'S MOVING TO UTAH!!!! OH BOY!!! The 24th, I headed up to Boise for the BEST weekend of my life.

We held hands the 24th
Kissed the 25th...
And that night we decided we wanted to make this a forever deal....:)
We sealed the deal, with a midnight helping of Fruity Pebbles....(remember this)

Due to my sisters wedding...we agreed to keep it our little secret...until after her big day.

SO....on the morning after her wedding...Brian and I headed up the mountians for a little breakfast stroll:) It rained pigs and chickens the ENTIRE time we were hiking....SOOO fun!!
We found a little park bench and sat down to eat our breakfast...under our umbrella:)
Brian pulled out the Fruity Pebbles box and asked me to open it.
Inside, I found a little prize:)
He got down on one knee and asked me to marry him...and of COURSE I said YES!!!
The sneaky little fella had opened the bottom of the box....that way I wouldn't notice the box was open! SOOO CUTE!


And here we are...the FUTURE Mr and Mrs Brian Walker!!!!

Did I mention...I cried like a fool?? My GOODNESS I love this boy! He sure knows how to make his woman melt!
I love you babe, and I can't wait to spend forever chasing cars with you.
October 16th will be the BEST day of our lives! I LOVE YOU and thanks for making my dreams come true! This Princess has finally found her Prince:)

Are you serious Lynds?!?!?!?! I have chills - I'm sooooooo happy for you! I can't believe it all happened so fast - I wanna jump up and down and throw a party... but then Emi would fall off my lap and Tyson might cry (he cries when others do). So I'll settle for you imagining me jumping upside down, on a rock, at Snoqualmie Pass (in the buck) and eating mashed potatoes. :) I LOVE YOU LYNDS!

(Others who are reading this...please do not try and ponder too long on my comment... it's an inside joke)

Dani said...

Yeah! I'm so excited for you! Mat came and woke me up from a nap (a very dangerous thing to do esp. when I'm 8 months pregnant) to tell me the news! We are both so happy for you. We love you! Congratulations!

Linda and Dave Browne said...

Hooray for my Lindsey-lou!!! I'm thrilled for you! Boy, now the Davises, Brownes and Johnsons will officially be related---now don't forget now who your moms are! :-) I love, love, love you kiddo and I will do everything in my power to be there! So, tell your mom to hold the Browne suite for me. Hey, I'm not sure how I feel finding out about this via FB and your blog instead of in person, but either way, I am so happy for you!!! Congratulations. It sounds like Brian is just perfect for you--those scheming Johnsons! :-) LOL!! I love it!! Take care and please keep your mom in the loop!

OK, now start blogging some pictures of Katie's wedding--I'm going crazy. I did see a couple on FB posted by a friend of hers, but that is just not enough!

Love you!!! Congrats!!

Congratulations. I am so happy for you. I can't wait. Did you get my address, I sent it to you on Facebook. If I don't get an invite I will cry. He must be a great guy if he gets to spend forever with you. Did Katie get married? Dude I will forever see her as a little kid, growing up is so weird. If I am ever back in UT I need to see you. Miss you!
