the scoop

I promised details, so for those of you haven't heard the story, it went like this...

I woke up at 4:30 Eastern Time to catch a flight from Orlando back to Salt Lake City a few weeks ago. Josh had planned to pick me up. Upon landing I called him to let him know we had landed, I was to meet him in the garage once I grabbed my bags.

As I was coming down the escalator (rumpled from the flight and sans make up), I was suprised to see Josh below with a sign that had my name on it. He looked like he was there to pick me up for an arranged ride. Since I had threatened to do this to him, I thought he was just joking around. I walked over and our exchange went something like this...

Bree: "You are such a nerd."
Josh: Laughs, smiles, and flips his sign over to reveal this...



Josh: Pulls out my awesome ring...
Bree: "Oh my gosh...yes! I can't believe I called you a nerd...I'm sorry."
Josh: "It's how you tell me you love me."
Bree: "I do love you."

Oh, I did check the "yes" box on the original.

Bree and Josh

It doesn't seem to matter if I tell that story or read it, it still gives me goose bumps, tears in my eyes and of course a smile on my face.

I am so looking forward to the Special Day!
