Slow Down, You Move Too Fast

tonight carlos and i hung out with my crowd, something i dont think we've ever done together. and it was amazing. i dont think he had too much fun but i loved it. we talked about the past, caught up on the present and told of our future plans. and it hit me... we're growing up. it was the last time we'll all be together for at least 3 years. boys are going on missions and to the olympics, girls are getting married, going to school and moving away. people are leaving for summer jobs and holidays and everyone is changing. high school is long gone and things will never be the same. its an exhilarating feeling. but its also scary.

no more photo shoots and virgin shots. no more late night drives with ashley, windows down and music blaring. no more sleepovers and pillow fights. no more youth dances or silly girl talk about that boy that looked at us. no more house or gossip girl marathons or midnight meet ups. at least not for a while. not how it's always been.

everything's changing.

but change is good.

right ?

Jen Bunny, You found a keeper!!

itssssssss meeeeeeeeeeeeeee


 sorry for not posting in a million years, i've been too busy FALLING IN LOVE.

I met a boy. His name is Carlos. He is tall, dark and handsome. HA. But actually.  He is a returned missionary, he likes to rap and...thats all.

just kidding. he's originally from Guatemala, thats right ladies, he considers himself a "latin lover".  he lived in London (ontario) and moved to Edmonton a few years ago. he speaks Spanish fluently and loves to dance. he plays basketball and soccer (he's better at soccer) and he's an artist. he loves a good pair of white shoes and recently purchased his first pair of TOMS. he likes long walks on the beach and starry nights. he also likes big butts and he cannot lie. he makes me chuckle frequently. we have dumb inside jokes and we like being around each other. all the corny stuff i never believed in.

we have so much in common. we both like soup and the outdoors. and talking and not talking. we could talk or not talk for hours and still find things to not talk about. (little mighty wind shout out)

WELL. we went to UT for conference this week and he asked me to marry him on Temple Square on Friday night. and i said yes.

Crazy right ? I'm engaged ? I have a fiance ? I have to plan a wedding ? I HAVE TO LIVE WITH A BOY ?

.i can't wait.

i hope no one minds finding out about this through my blog... i have no phone with me so i can't call everyone. plus i'm terribly awkward on el telefono (that means, the telephone)
