Twitterpation? or True LOVE?

I have a million and one reasons as to why I have been neglecting my blog so horribly. But it is indeed twitterpation season, and I am in

Like sickly, sugary, sweet, sappy, deliriously happy love. I know I know kinda of a lame excuse.

But I think getting engaged qualifies though. So here it goes…

I am dying of this horrific cough (super sexy BTW)
and Pacer picks me up in the morning we head up to Silver Falls for the North falls. We hike awhile and spend time snuggling under the waterfall. I know give you a tooth ache sweet.

Then my coughing lungs decided for us, that hiking probably was not a really great idea. So we headed toward South falls to have a picnic. Pacer arranged everything he carried his picnic basket filled with yummies. He laid out the blanket and plates and silverware and food.

over the river and through the woods to our private little picnic spot


yup I said yes! derrrr!!!!

Then he asked me to marry him. It couldn't be a more perfect and wonderful day. I love Pacer with all my heart. I can't wait to spend all my life and all eternity with him.

Me + a Gun = Watch out

First time a shootin'

I have never held a gun in my life, and I was perfectly blissful in my gun ignorance, until I met Pacer. I admire that about them. I never thought I would ever touch a gun let alone shoot one. So I was mildly surprised that I actually quite enjoyed shooting a gun. It was so fun, I had a blast *haha pun intended* and I look forward to the next time. actually I am saving bottles for shootin'

Thanks Pacer & Margaret for teaching me a new activity.
