A Perfect Proposal


           The rumors are true. . . Treagan and I are getting married!  It has taken me way too long to get my act together and write the story down.  So much goes on once you are engaged though.  My mom started that next morning with the wedding planning and dress shopping.   It’s fun but a lot more stressful than I ever thought it would be. I can’t wait for April 8th to be here!  April 8th is the day, so save it in your planner! 

         Monday morning was a normal day. I woke up at 6am to get ready for work at 7 went in at 8 instead; it was a slow morning because of the holiday.  Treag and my dad were waiting for me to leave so Treag could talk to him about how he was going to propose and ask if he could marry me, a little last minute don’t you think? Ha   Poor guys they were really freaking out….well my dad was! He was pretty much pushing me out the door :)  Treagan came over for lunch that day and I made us tacos. As soon as we were done eating he said he had to go help his mom move some renters in.  That little sneak, he wasn’t doing that at all and I had NO idea!  I was supposed to go back to work at 1 but I didn’t have to, so once again everyone was freaking out because the plans were not going as expected.  My mom convinced me to go to Idaho Falls with her shopping.  I texted Treag and told him to text me when he was done with homework and I would come home and go to the gym with him around 6.  Well my mother had a 3 hour dentist appointment that she forgot to inform me about!  I was ticked that I had to wait in the waiting room with nothing to do.  While I was there I called my dad and asked him if Treagan had asked him if he could marry me yet and he said, yeah we are talking tomorrow at noon.  Ok my dad NEVER lies so that entire day I had no clue it was happening at all! All of the fishy things that happened I didn’t even notice because of that comment! Well I didn’t end up getting home until 8:30pm. Treagan and I had a yummy dinner that Konda made for her sisters birthday.  After we finished everyone was playing games and they didn’t even ask us to play. I should have known something was going on!  Konda wouldn’t let us skip out on games with them!  We went down and watched the bachelor and after that he said lets go play Wii at your house with Natalee and Andrew. . . so we left!  Konda called Treag in the house when we were getting in the car to go up to my house. I thought it was to come in and play a game before we left (ha) but Treag said it was to sign a birthday card for his aunt.  Little did I know it was to call my family and tell them that we were on our way!  When we pulled up to my house all of the lights were off.  I thought that no one was home so I said lets go back to your house and play games.  Treag just laughed and said “hey, what’s that over there?”  I looked and saw a huge mass of snow.  I wasn’t sure what it was. I just thought that my dad and Andrew were playing in the snow while I was in the dentist office with my mom.  So we walked over and when we got about 3 feet away, it lit up.  It was a ten-foot tall rendition of the Rexburg Temple!  Right then I knew exactly what was going on!  I was so excited I was literally jumping up and down!  Treagan bends down and says what is this and pulls out a ring box!  I just bent down with him and hugged him and kissed his cheeks!  Treag was like “Alison you are doing this wrong, stand up!” So I hugged him again and stood up.  He put the ring on my finger and I pulled him right up and kissed him again. I was soo happy!  My family had walked out while this was all going on and has signs that said, “Allie  Will  You   Marry  Me?”  And then Natalee walked over and gave me a dozen red gorgeous roses from Treag.  The Fullmers had rushed over so they were there to see it happen!  I loved that our families were there for this to happen. It was so fun to hug and see everyone after and take pictures!
