The Proposal

Ok so now that I have a little more time I will let you all in on the long story. I was dozing off so I decided to call Chris because Ramses wouldn't leave me alone. We talked a little then Chris said he had to shower so we hungup. Ramses still wouldn't shush. It was like he was trying to keep me awake, so I sent Chris a text, "I think Ramses misses you cause he won't stop actiing up" or something along those lines. He didn't respond so I text him again saying "well I'm going to sleep I love you, goodnight." Well he wrote back right away "wait I'm gonna call you in a few minutes." So of course I stayed up and waited. A few minutes later he called. While on the phone I must admit I was exhausted and was kinda zoning out when Chris started to tell me how much he loved me :) well halfway thru his sentence I see a light shine in my room. I sat up and saw someone at my backslider with a flashlight (of course I know now it was my boo.) So of course I freak the hell out! haha and put my phone down (so that this "peeping tom" haha doesnt see the light of my phone) and run out and quietly as I can. Olga was in the living room so I yelled and said someone was in the back. Poor thing, I got her all freaked out too. Well I put the phone to my ear again to tell Chris I had to hang up to call 911 and he's already yelling "it's me! it's me!" lol so I tell Olga it's him (after yelling at him!) and run to the back slider. When I pulled back the curtain Chris was on one knee with the ring box open. The light I had seen was the little light inside the box that lights up the ring :) It was definitely a surprise! a scary one! lol well of course I opened the slider and Chris asked those 4 little words after telling me he loved me. It was a great moment...definitely memorable. My heart was beatnig so fast. First from getting the crap scared out of me and 2nd from the sheer happiness I felt. Even though I knew he had a ring he intended to give to me (another long story! haha) it was still as special as it could be. As you can tell from the picture below, my ring is beautiful. It's like it was specially made for me. We haven't set a date because we plan on trying to take it slow but we are very excited and can't wait to celebrate with everyone. Tomorrow his family will be coming to my parents house for a nice dinner. I'm so happy. I love love love you boo.

BLISS

Can you believe it? I can! I'm so happy. We're engaged and it's perfect. It's a long story but last night Chris came over and I finally got my beautiful ring. I love it. It's gorgeous!...I'm a lucky lucky girl. I have the best boyfriend and he loves me! enough to ask me to marry him. Wow im still letting it sink in.

Crack fox

Hey everyone! I know we don't ever blog anymore so I'm gonna try to update the most I can. Chris and I are still very happy and just hanging out having fun. Chris found this show called The Mighty Boosh. It's the best! my favorite episode is The Crack Fox. I'm obsessed with it. Oh we went to Liz's babyshower and that was tons of fun. I won a fish and named her Aqua. She's good. We were in the danger zone for a second there cause someone put like 18 pellets of food in her bowl :( I still haven't found out who...but I have my suspicions. She's ok now so phew :) haha. My family's here from Texas right now so I've been trying to spend time with them. We've gone bowling and to the movies. Oh and bbqs at my moms. I went to Vegas with them last week but that was blah. I guess I'm not a Vegas person :) haha. Ummm Chris is at Coachella right now and I'm sure he's having tons of fun. I miss him when he's not around. Everyone says its the honeymoon stage but we both made a pact to try and never let that change. We'll see huh? I'm the happiest I've ever been, I got the guy of my dreams.... yeah, the future doesn't scare me anymore.

New Car

I finally got my new Tahoe! after that dreadful scene at Moreno Valley GMC (I'm officially boycotting them) and countless hours of internet searches lol I finally paid a visit to Rotolo Chevy in Fontana. Karen Tom, and of course Chris, all went with me. It was so stressful but I got my new 09 Tahoe and they were professional and calm with me. It was so nice having my favorite people with me. It's helps so much considering I'm such a worry wart and I was soo nervous. It didn't help that I was traumatized from my last visit to a dealership lol. I totally owe you guys for staying up so late with me. Thanks <3 PS: I'll post some pictures of it soon :)

Laura Bear

Sunday we went to little Audreys birthday party at a park in Temecula :) It was a nice day out and the food was good. Oh and we got to decorate our own cupcakes. That was fun... after the party we headed to Karens apt. From there we went to the promenade and visited Build A Bear. Chris made a bear resembling me and named it Laura Bear. I made Chris a bear that kinda looked like him. I named him Donny. Chris says he loves it. On Monday I went and met Vanessa and Arnold's new little baby Arnold JR. He is the cutest baby ever, well since Angelina, and he has banana hands like Chris. I've added a picture of the two of them. That night we went to a show at the Glass House. We saw Cut Copy, Matt and Kim aaaand DJ Knightlife. It was fun..we went into a wine bar and the bartender was a biatch. The wine was good though and they had some cool art on their walls. Pomona is still ugly though. Tuesday I went to home depot and bought a plant to put in my yard we'll see how that goes lol...that night I went to Grees house and watched American Idol. Someone has really gotta hook that visually impaired guy with a haircut. Right now we're watching cartoons and eating lemons with salt. Oh and listening to Depeche Mode. We're cool ya'll <3

Dinner plans

So last night Chris told me he would take me out when I texted him from work telling him how stressed out I was from working Perris radio for 10 hrs. Then he kinda changed his mind when I called him on my break all jacked up from a ft pursuit that was a total mess lol. But he ended up surprising me and waiting at mission grove till I got out of work. So we headed out with no specific plans and decided to go to Napa79, a very nice restaurant in Riverside that Chris had been to once before, but we get to the damn place and it's closed down! I guess people are too broke for fine dining :( sooo we head over to the Tyler mall a cpl exits down the fwy to eat at PF Changs. But the wait was 45 min to an hr which seemed ridiculous considering there weren't even that many people waiting. So we figured the snobby bitches at the front didn't know what they were doing and we left. We walked down the parking lot to The Cheesecake Factory and omg it was so packed we couldn't even see the hostess. So here we go again lol we headed over to the record store down the street real quick and that too was closed down! including the 2 stores next to it. What the heck man people are too broke to buy records but they can still fill every damn restaurant within a 5 mile radius! haha well when i left from there I went the wrong way ( of course) so I told Chris hey maybe it's a sign AND sure enough we see The Dragon House to our left. Chris had wanted to go a cpl wks ago so it was perfect. We got sat right away and our food was yummy sooo it turned out to be a good night :) it's nice to go out on a work night. Oh and by the way Chris bought a peacoat yesterday at Ontario Mills so he was looking very dashing... What a lucky girl I am huh?

Homebound

SO I'm now on the road home :) I had a nice time in Texas. Just relaxing and visiting family. I saw my grandma and she's not doing too well. It's sad to see her sick but hopefully her bronchitis goes away. All of my aunts were their usual loud selves. I met my cousins newborn son and his little cousin who was born 1 day beoore him. Both were so cute and it was nice to hold them. I even got to feed and burp the babygirl. I talked to Chris some and I was telling him how lately I want a lot of the things now that I grew up saying I didn't care for. It's nice to know I'm growing up a lot being with Chris. I'm sure it sounds cliche but I seriously feel like I'm homebound & I don't only mean it literally :)
