Pleasure: Today I enjoyed a latte and the company of a friend in the morning, and a (well earned) nap in the afternoon.
Pray: Today I prayed blessings on my brother, Frankie and his (now) fiancee's engagement (it sounds so weird to be saying fiancee,, as they just got engaged today). They have a beautiful and rare love; when they are around each other they radiate still get googly-eyed (even after almost 4 years together). I am so proud of them for what they have now, and the success their future will bring. I prayed that God would give them stregnth and hope during bad times (like Logan and I are facing now; only, I never imagined we would have to fight so hard to keep "us" going through hard times- we've never had to fight so hard, and I can only hope Frankie and Aimee never have to go through this). I am one lucky girl. I have the best brother and soon to be sister-in-law (even though she's already my Sissy).
Love: Today I spent the majority of my day preparing for my brother to propose to Aimee (his now fiancee, as of 9 something pm). Aimee is a hoarder and fiend of all things Christmas, so Frankie planned to propose by spelling out "Will you marrry me?" in Christmas lights. We created a beautiful scene: Christmas music in the background, a Christmas tree lit with their decorations and twinkling clear lights, fake presents, and a candle-lit trail with red and white rose petals. At the end of the trail was "Will you marry me?" in colored Christmas lights (plugged in by Logan at the perfect time, thanks baby). Aimee couldn't have more surprised, as she showed up makeup-less in her shorty-shorts and Hooters tank top, while my brother was dressed up (for him anyway). I just hope my sniffles didn't distract from their moment ;) I will post pictures tomorrow.
Love to everyone.
