I'm Taken!!! :]

So, for those of my friends who only see me on Blogger and not on Facebook, I'm ENGAGED!!! Devin proposed to me Wednesday afternoon. We had spent the day in Helen, GA browsing the shops and eating good German food.

Then, we went to see the Anna Ruby Falls before heading back home, which are absolutely beautiful. The park was getting very close to closing, so we were the last people the ranger let hike up the mountain. As a result, we were the only ones at the Falls when we got up there.

I was somewhat oblivious to what was about to happen, so I was concerned about making sure we got a picture in front of the Falls before having to get back down the mountain before the park closed. Can you tell how nervous Devin is in this picture?

There, he surprised me with a bucket with little notes, flowers, and flipflops. He also lit a couple candles. The notes were thoughts he had all throughout the six months we were dating that he'd wanted to share but weren't appropriate at the time. After having me read the notes, he got down on one knee and proposed! I said yes, of course! :]

And, Devin custom designed the ring himself. Without ever even asking me, he made the exact ring I'd always wanted!

Since then, everyone has wanted to know wedding details. About as far as we've gotten is Devin trying to persuade me that our registries should be at Best Buy and Toys R Us. (Don't worry...that won't happen.) To be honest, we haven't even had time to discuss it. Today, Devin graduated and is now a real Astrophysicist who is in the process of getting into medical school. Tomorrow we are headed to PA to spend Christmas with my family. But, once we know any details, I will be sure that everyone knows! :]
