I started the video and it was a video slideshow of all the pictures we've taken together with our 2 songs. About 60 seconds into the video, he came downstairs.(He had been hiding upstairs with my roommates.) So we watched the slideshow.
After the video, he got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. I said yes. So we were hugging and I was like,"wait! Let me see the ring again." So he pulled the box back and the it was empty. The ring had fallen out so we scrambled to the ground and found it. It was pretty funny. Then I asked him what ring he ended up getting(we looked at a few) and he said,"are you sure you want me to to tell you on camera?" Apparently he had hidden a video camera in the entertainment center so we have it all on tape!

It's official!
Here we are in the aftermath of the proposal. I love my ring! He did such a great job.
A closer view. The diamond cut is called a trillion. I like it cause it's kind of unique.

A few more from the recital
Post performance glow
Just FYI, I didn't set this photo up at all. I can't believe how great it turned out. Not only is the light right on Megan's face, but it is a fantastic picture of her, which is pretty rare, as she has a hard time smiling naturally for the camera. So I was really happy with this one. Also, am I the only one who thinks that the little girl next to Megan is wearing WAY too much eye makeup? Yikes!
A photo op with mom and dad and a well-deserved ice cream cone. Delicious!
One last pic--Megan and Jaxton. They love each other and are great friends. He was so cute that night and was excited that he got to see Megan dance. We miss you already, Jax! See you in a few months! Take lots of fun pictures for us!
p.s. For any of you that don't know, Jaxton and his family (my sister's family) moved to the Philippines today. That's part of the reason the blog has been slow lately. We've been busy spending time together and helping Angela get ready to move.
Sorry for the long wait....

Recital pictures to come....
Thanks to everyone who came to Megan's dance recital last night. She was so cute and we really appreciated you making the trip. I kind of feel like I have post overloaded today, so I will wait a few days to post the recital photos. It will give you something to look forward to. :)
Summerfest
We had a great time at Summerfest this year! Megan and Jaxton loved the Art Yard. They made froot loop necklaces, painted, made gigatic bubbles, and did a couple of different crafts. I think they would have been happy to stay there all day. I managed to drag them out of there eventually so I could get myself a shaved ice. :)
New Bike!
Megan finally got a big kid bike! She is kind of scared to ride it because she thinks it goes "too fast". This is mostly due to the fact that our street inclines very slightly. So I have to stay right next to her while she's riding it so she doesn't freak out that she's going to go to fast and not be able to stop. We have been having fun with it, though, and taking rides around the cul-de-sac.

Backstage at Annie Get Your Gun
Here are a few backstage photos. One with my friend Paul (that mustache--ick!), who I have done three shows with in the past year--Millie, Savior of the World, and this one. He is my other brother. (Sorry, George.) And another with my friend Molly, who is the craziest, funnest girl you'll ever meet. I love my red and gold ball gown!

Scared of the Dark???
I just had to tell this story about Jaxton cause it's about the funniest thing I've ever heard him say. Last weekend, I went up to Mom and Dad's house to help get things going for the office remodel. Since Angela and Kessee are in the Philipines, Gabby and Jaxton are staying up there. On Monday morning, I had gone into the downstairs bathroom to change my clothes and I shut the door behind me. While I was in there changing I heard Jaxton start coming down the stairs to get some toys. He stopped about halfway down the steps and realized all of the lights were turned off in the basement, so it was pretty dark down there. Not knowing I was in the bathroom, he yelled, "Grandma or someone, will you come turn on the lights downstairs? I'm scared." So, I yelled back, "I'll come turn on the lights!" There was a little pause and Jaxton asked, "Um....are you a ghost???" We all got a pretty good laugh out of that one! Kids say the funniest things.
