Proposal trumps Bachelor

Of course with the start of the new year many exciting things are happening. School being one of them. Break went by way too fast so to try to ease the "pain" of the first day of school my friends and I decided to do a Bachelor night. But before I write about that I need to share the exciting news! My SISTER is engaged! I am so glad one productive event happened today, far more productive than watching Bachelor and missing my first two classes because of scheduling errors. Yes, little bunny is engaged. She got engaged to the most perfect guy. This doesn't surprise me because she is PERFECT to me. Here are some posts from the proposal. He took her up behind his house in Mapleton (where they had their first date) and popped the question! She of course said yes and then gave my mom a call. I was upstairs preparing for the Bachelor and heard excitement from my mom downstairs. I ran down and was thrilled to see mom give the nod and smile like yes he proposed! They came over during the Bachelor and even though Chris (The Bachelor) is quite stunning himself, Emily and Cody got my attention and are far more stunning. I loved seeing them so happy and hearing the details. 

Bachelor night with the girlfriends was good. Thanks to my mom for helping me set it up. She is great and my love for parties comes straight from her.  I have some amazing friends who I love being able to see! I love planning little parties and a big reason is so I can see my wonderful friends. Not to be dramatic but I MUST watch Bachelor with friends so I have a built in support group when the drama unfolds during the show. Thank you girls for being there so I'm not alone rolling my eyes. I don't know if it is the built in support group or the pile of Hershey kisses that eases the drama of the show. Either way  friends are an excuse to buy two bags of Hershey kisses to eat during the show,  works for me! Tonight was my first time seeing Lauren since her 18 month mission. Enjoyed seeing her and can not wait to catch up. Also good to see some girls I work with, past roommates, friends from CA and London girls. 

Shirley's bakery you did well. Props to you for putting red roses on these. Someone was aware it was the Bachelor season premier without even being reminded. 

This is the only photo from the night of my friends. Chris was on the screen I was distracted. My sincere apologies...I will try to remember next time to take more photos of my cute friends.
