How happy are we?- that is the question!

On Saturday troy and I went to the Jewellers and bought the ring together, when we went home he then went down on both knees and proposed, how very sweet of him! 

We have been talking about getting married for a few months now and so this was a beautiful moment to have.  My parents have bought us huge flowers which appear to be taking over our living room!

It has only taken us over eight and a half years of knowing each other, over half that being together to finally get to this stage.

I never used to want the ball and chain- that includes kids, but weird how the right person changes your mind without you realising it ay?

So here we are, engaged to be married... all we are waiting for is my traineeship so we can buy a house and walk down the aisle.  I cannot imagine anyone else I could want to be with.  Such clarity and absence of doubt is extremely rare, but of this much we are sure.  We want to grow old, grey and cranky together standing outside the post office in rush hour on saturday!  hooooo yes! lol.

 

Thanks to all of you who texted and sent their love, we really appreciate it.  Feel free to come over on the 29th and celebrate with us in our new home.

 

I also have two other notes to make;

 

1.  Well done to Rossi for winning the MotoGP yesterday, that was a fantastic race.  Unfortuantely I was unable to view the first four laps for trying to get my Spanish cousin off the phone!  Every bit that I saw was great racing, I was literally sitting on the edge of my seat trying not to shout the house down.  Sad to see Stoner have engine troubles but he did damn good to do as he did with a slipping clutch.  Braking with just one finger?! Funny.  Really great to see Pedrosa finally not let Rossi's tricks unnerve him, this gave the two guys a cat and mouse chase right up until the last second.  Gripping TV.

 

2.  My condolences to Colin MacRae's family and friends.  A great person has been lost.  May he rest in peace.
