Goin’ to the chapel…

12 Mar

Sorry Facebook peeps… I know you already saw this when I posted it Sunday, but everything I post to my actual blog automatically posts to Facebook again. So just ignore!

Okay so I’m not actually going to the chapel for but…

I get to marry Kevi!!!! :D <3

Okay so this is how it went down… LoL.

I had the weekend off & we decided to go to home to see my family. We haven’t been there in a little while so it was no weird thing when he suggested it. Today (Sunday) we were on our way from my hometown to a nearby town to go get pizza with my family — Mom, Dad, & Jarred — and Jarred was in the car with us while Mom & Dad were in front. We stopped at a gas station so the boys could get something to drink. While I was in the car Mom called me to say that my best friend’s mom had called her to ask if we were still in the area. She said that Rhonda (bff’s mom) had said that their neighbor out at their lake cabin had called to say that a suspicious person was wandering around the cabin, and Rhonda wondered if we could stop by & check it out, make sure no doors were busted into or windows were broken.

So I tell Jarred & Kevin that we have a mission. They got all excited & were saying how they felt like spies or mercenaries or something… LoL. Then my bff calls me & says, “Your mom called me… is something up?” I figured out that she wasn’t with her parents so I assumed she didn’t know what was going on, so I told her & she thanked me for filling her in & we hung up. Tee hee.

We get to the cabin (remember, it’s a beauuuutiful sunny day) and Jarred goes around the house one way while Kevin & I go the other. I’m all serious, checking the door knobs, telling Kevin to check out the glass to make sure no windows are busted or messed with. I say we should go down by the lake to the boat house to check that. While we’re down there Kevin says, “You know, I was thinking… we’ve been through a lot… ” I say, “What, you mean like when we broke up?” “Yeah that… but not just that… driving 2 hours to see each other for those first 3 years & everything… but you know what sticks out the most?” We had moved up to the yard right next to the boathouse… I ask what stuck out the most… he says, “How we met.” I say, “Yeah, right here!” (On July 3rd, almost 5 years ago, my bff & I had been sitting in deck chairs at that spot in the yard when I waved him over from his bff’s cabin & he introduced himself to me.) “That’s why I picked this spot.” “What…?” He gets down on one knee and pulls the ring out & says, “Jashana Cheree, will you be my wife?” I tell him to shut up & giddily ask him if he’s serious (while I pull off my promise ring & eagerly give him my finger!) and he obviously says yes, he is serious. So I obviously say yes, I will most definitely marry him & be his wife.

:D So…. basically, couldn’t be more perfect!!!! And surprisingly, I was totally oblivious to the whole thing until he said that’s why he chose that spot. I legit thought we were going to find a robber at the cabin. HaHa!

So that’s how he did it, for everyone who is curious! (I really didn’t want to type all of that out 18 times to everyone individually! HaHa.) Now, wish us luck planning a wedding in like, 4 months. !!!! We want to get married this summer because we plan on moving out of state early next year & we’d like to have the big shindig before we move away, obviously. Also, this summer July 10 is on a Saturday… and that will be our 5 year dating anniversary! :) And, my dad’s bday! :D That’s just a fun little bonus.
