An Exciting Engagement

Last night was a big night at our apartment. No, the engagement is not mine...but my amazing roommate, Angela. Congratulations Ang and Jon!! It is so fun to see them both so absolutely, almost disgustingly, happy.

Here's the story...I had the hardest day of coming back yet. My lack of sleep and overworking got to me and I was barely functioning. All day I was looking forward to 7:30pm coming along so I could go home. Of course, because I was so ready to go home (with everything shut down and cleaned up...which I don't normally have ready by 7:30), I had one student who wasn't picked up on time. So I had to sit and wait with her for almost 20 minutes. At this point, I was dying. My bed was calling and I was quickly losing my patience. All I could think about during my drive home was how nice it will be to spend some quality time with my bed. I walked to our front door and unlocked it...the normal routine...I opened the door and found Ang and Jon laughing hysterically. I totally walked in RIGHT after Jon popped the question! I'm now grateful my student's parents were late. It could have been even more awkward to get home earlier.Sorry I don't have a picture of the two of them.
Regardless, I am SOOOOO excited for Ang. She has been a much needed friend to me for a long time. We met before my mission at BYU where we had a class together. She was a much needed friend then and has continued to be so. I can't express how grateful I am that the Lord allowed our paths to cross again AND again so that we would be friends for life. Ang and Jon, I wish you the best!! I love you guys!

Congrats to Ang! And thank goodness for small miracles like parents being late, to help you avoid REALLY awkward moments :)
