Life just Got away

I kind of let life get away with me for a while.  So many thoughts and feelings gone unshared and misplaced and maybe even forgotten.  Well I have picked up 2 challenges that require me to write in my journal...and well this is what I have chosen for my journal.  I really need to get back into my blog and share with those who read this (if any) the things that go on in the life of the Forhs. 

Now wait did I just say the life of the Forhs? Why yes I did!!!! But the last thing I posted about was I was dating some guy and I wasn't sure how it would last...well it lasted all the way to me saying "I do!!"

So I will not over load you with stuff I will go back and tell 1 of the exciting stories today....Engagement. 

So back on October 25th of 2012 I was preparing for a romantic date with this guy I had fallen in love with.  The date was to take place on the 26th and I was SURE he was going to propose to me. I got a super cute outfit from Kohls.  Cute blue and black dress and new black, small heal, shoes.  I was ready to say yes to this amazing guy to be his wife. Well things did not go as I planned they would go.

On the 25th I get a phone call from Andy saying his cousin was shot and killed.  So that night  I waited for him to get off work.  I took a shower and put on a big baggy sweater and PJ pants since it was chilly and rainy outside.  Threw my wet hair up in a messy bun and finished getting all my makeup off my face.  I was ready for bed and he called to tell me he was home and I asked if he wanted to come over and see him.  So I got in my car and drove over to see him for a little bit to hopefully make his bad day a little better.  He opened up the door when I got there and we cuddled on the couch.  After a little bit he got up and walked off and slammed the door to the bathroom.  I had asked if everything was ok and he said NO.  I was worried.  I had no idea what had happened.  He came back and I stood up to see if everything was ok and maybe talk.  He started kissing me and while he was kissing me he sat me down on the couch and he got down on his knees.  Down on his knees...is he going to ask..no no no..he is doing it tomorrow..he just wants to pull my legs and fake me out...well I kiss with my eyes closed and I opened one to peek down and well he had a box in his hand.  OH MY GOSH IS HE GOING TO ASK!!! The next thing I know he starts talking to me.  "I love you" I love you too "Erin Christina Elliott...soon to be Forh...will you marry me?" And well I did something I never thought I would do I asked a question no girl should ask when being proposed to. ARE YOU SERIOUS...REALLY? Yea I really asked that.  He really meant it....and I said YES!!!! He put the most beautiful ring on my finger and we kissed more and cuddled for a bit longer before I headed home.

So October 25th will always be a date to remember.  He wanted to catch me off guard and well he really did.  He surprised me.  It wasn't any way I had imagined but he had just gotten the ring and could not wait to ask me ... so it was romantic and cute. 

I really do love this guy.

I Am Grateful

I am happy and so grateful on June 9th I had said yes to being his girlfriend, and on October 25th I said yes to wanting to marry him, and on March 9th I said yes to being his wife. 

I am also grateful to have a husband who loves and cares for me and grateful for a man who is trying his best to prepare to be a wounderful father to our sweet sweet daughter, Aurora.  (Did I forget to mention we are pregnant? heh ^_^ maybe you should keep reading for when I post that story.)
