Has it Really Been a Year?

July 27th, 2009 @ 2:34 pm by Mrs. Mascara

Sunday, July 27th, 2008. That’s the day that Mr. M got down on one knee in the middle of the Chicago Botanic Gardens and asked me to spend the rest of my life with him. It was an incredibly special moment, and I was the happiest girl in the world.

Then he gave me this…

… and so it began!

I can’t believe we’ve been engaged for a year, planning this wedding for a year, and anxiously waiting to become husband and wife for a year. The wedding cannot come soon enough!

Mr. M… happy one-year-of-being-engaged!

xoxo,

your fiance

How long is your engagement?
