our proposal

For the past month, Jordan and I have been looking for a condo for Jordan to live this next year while he attends Regis University studying Physical Therapy. The process was tiring and we have had our hearts broken many times!! One day, Jordan found a place he absolutely loved! Being the workaholic that I am, I was working haha so I had no idea what this place looked like. I knew they made an offer on that place on Thursday, but didn't want to get my hopes up because I couldn't take any more disappointments.

So, fast forward two days later...

Jordan and I planned to go on a date night to Cheesecake Factory! That day felt like any ordinary day, but for Jordan he was on the verge of being hospitalized from his nerves. I came home, not expecting a thing, got ready, and we left, the last time I would ever be single!! Dinner was amazing as we stuffed our faces, and I kind of thought something was up because Jordan coincidentally had to go to the bathroom like 10 times!! But then, I thought, "naw something won't happen. My mom wouldn't have let me wear this."

So after dinner, we were driving home and we got lost!! I was mad and giving Jordan a lecture, as usual, because I was upset that we were in some gangbang, bars on windows, sketchy area where we could have gotten mugged...or even worse, raped! haha so the first street we recognizedI suggested we QUICK take it!! Surprisingly, it was a street the condo Jordan made an offer on is off of. He asked if we wanted to drive by and peek in the windows of the potential new condo. As soon as we got there and were walking, I let go of Jordan's hand and asked, "um is something wrong?! You're hands are INSANELY clammy and sweaty! It is like you are nervous or something!!" We got to the stairs and he stopped me and said he had lied to me earlier. That morning the Realtor called and said Jordan owns the apartment!!! We were both flipping out because it was so exciting!! 

So I ran to the door to peek in the windows and was distracted by the open window!! I screamed, "oh my gosh, someone broke in!! (Probably because we were just driving in a murder alley 10 minutes prior)." I then looked further and noticed rose petals and candles laying on the floor!! At that moment, I lost it!! I kept screaming "Oh my gosh!! this is not happening!!! Is this for real!! No, you're joking!!" We walked inside and Jordan got down on one knee and asked me to be his wife!! Not going to lie, I missed the speech because I was hysterically laughing and screaming from nerves, because the look on Jordan's face was priceless!!

So in less than 5 minutes, I found out this is the place we will start our lives together, I am marrying Jordan, and then Jordan said, "by the way, we need to go to the airport to pick up my parents!!" Needless to say, I was in shock, but I couldn't be happier!! July 22, 2011 marks the day we will start the rest of our lives together!!
