It's Official!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello world! So here's a story I will tell for the rest of my life... I might as well write it here.

Last Friday, Oct. 5th, 2007 my boyfriend, Michael, took me for a surprise helicopter ride. We drove out to his parent's house that weekend and their backyard is up against an air strip. Everyone in the neighborhood owns planes and whatnot... well... about ten minutes after arriving Michael comes into the kitchen and notices the Woody, a neighbor, has his helicopter out and running and Michael says to me, "oh April, we should go see if he will give us a ride!". So I am all on board with that so we run over there and jump in after getting the OK. We were up in the air for 10 or 15 minutes, the weather was perfect, the lighting was soft but still bright enough to let us see all the scenery below. Before landing we circled over Michael's parent's backyard and Michael says to me "Hey April, what does that say?... On the ground?" and I look out my window to see a huge message reading MARRY ME APRIL in white paint on the grass. I turned to him and saw a ring in his hand...

yada yada, I am officially spoken for =) Yeah!
Although it is no surprise to anyone we are,
we are at our 5.5 year mark.

He is wonderful, and such a blessing...
And look at the story he's given us! Awesome!! =)
