[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false]I’ve been sitting on a secret since Friday night. Me, the person who tries to give people their Christmas presents in October, too excited to wait. After a long day and one huge surprise, I went to bed the happiest person on the planet.
Nick asked me to marry him, and you’d better believe I said yes. In the four and a half years we’ve known each other, Nick has become both my anchor and my sail. How did a dinghy like me get so lucky?

Forever is the best possible adventure I could imagine. I am so happy, so blessed, so grateful.
Also On Tap for Today:
- Traveling north and south to celebrate with our families
- 11 miles
- Smiling, crying, more smiling, and more crying 🙂
Are you good at keeping secrets or surprises?

[…] Initially the little bird was no where to be seen. My sixth sense–the same one that I am convinced is going to help me solve crimes paranormally so I can have a television show– told me that he was still out (of the nest) and about. And sure enough, he (let’s be serious, it could be a she) was on the other side of the sidewalk, just waiting to be put in a tree by a crazed woman wearing her fiance’s socks on her hands. (OMG! FIANCE! GAAAAH!) […]
