I'm Getting MARRIED

I know all of you already know this! But I just needed to write it OUT LOUD. I am marry an incredible man on November 24, 2010. And I couldn't be happier!
At the beginning of 2010. I had no plans of marry this year. I wasn't dating any one person in particular, I was pretty happy single, I was content with my life.
I've had a crush on Brent for a while but that boy refused to have a crush on me. No matter what I did, he wouldn't ask me out. But other boys did and I went and had lots of fun. I even remember on Mother's Day I sang with a small group at church so my parents came to listen. Brent was the speaker that day and I leaned over to my mother and told her that was my future boyfriend, I just had to convince him.
And now, he isn't just my future boyfriend but the man I get to spend eternity with. Yes, our relationship was way fast! Even too fast for us. At times I think, "Sandra, what are you doing. You are not that girl!" But I'm happy to say, I am that girl. The girl that feel in love and went all in. It all happen so fast.
July 9th- First date
July 12th- He held my hand (or really he touched my knee and I grabbed his hand)
July 13th- Lets go ahead and get that ackward 1st kiss out of the way. Whoa, way more than a kiss. I guess he was catching up for all his non-kissing years. And I was gracious and allowed it. I mostly love making out.
July 16th- My 80's prom, kinda our guess what everyone, we are dating
July 17th- Brent flies to Ca for 3 weeks.
Sometime between July 17-August 7th- I realized I never wanted him to leave me for that long again, shoot, I love the man
August 7th- I love you's are said
August 8th- He comes to Jackson and meets the Eatons
August 11th- We go to the temple together and we KNOW we will get married
August 13th- We go ring shopping
August 15th- We call and tell his family that we are getting married
August 20th- Brent proposes to me and I say yes!!!!!!!!!!
August 25th- I call and confirm the date with the temple

So yes it was fast but when it's right it's right and I want to spend eternity with Mr. Brent Adamson. I want to grow old with him.
So how did he propose? The branch had a campout scheduled for the 20th. Brent asked if I wanted to ride together. At first I said I would just meet them there since it was closer for me to drive from Jackson than for me to drive to Memphis then to the campout. But he convinced me to come and ride with him....not that it took much convincing at all. We decided to go to the campout late. We went to dinner at Sekisu (sushi) which I love! It was a nice dinner. But he could have taken me to taco bell and I would still say it was nice. I just like being with this boy. Anyways, on the way back to his apartment he pulled into the park. And I think my exact words were, you wanna make out in the park now? It's still daylight.
So we went to the back of the parking lot. And I was like cool, Katy Perry was playing, Hot and Cold on the radio (I love that song) and I decided to kiss Brent. He turned off the radio and then he sang me our song. The song we are going to dance to at our wedding. He had the ring pulled out, then he told me a few really sweet things that ended with, Sandra Eaton, I do want to grow old with you, I love you, Will you Marry Me? Of course I said yes! Because I love him too. Then after kissing him a little I said, really, you didn't even get on one knee. But I guess I really didn't care, because I got my ring, and an incredible man to go with it.
Now, I don't love all this wedding stuff. I don't like it one bit. I'm ready for the wedding to be over with and for me just to be able to be married to him. I know it will be hard. Just the fact I will be commuting to work everyday is hard. But it's going to work out. He still has 3 years of school left, so I'm thinking I will be working for a while longer. We aren't planning on kids for at least a year but I'm thinking we will wait 2 before we try.
I'm really happy. I like to think about how I thought I knew what I was looking for. I thought that I knew what was best for me. But Heavenly Father proved me wrong. Brent was worth waiting until I was 29. He is worth all the tears from any other relationship. He's just worth it. And I hope he thinks I'm worth it too.
