We're Getting Married!

Wow..I've been a total slacker! It's not even like I haven't had anything good to write about. I decided that instead of trying to jam everything into one post, I'm going to break it up into a few, so hang in there with me.
First!
We're getting married! Finally! For those of you who haven't heard the story, or want to hear it again, here we go....
My work had asked me to do an over-night inventory out of town starting on February 14th (Valentines day!) and I was very hesitant to do it, because I didn't want to miss Valentines with Kirk, and I didn't want to screw up any plans that he might have already made. So I talked to him, and of course he told me to do it, and take all those extra hours. He told me he hadn't made any plans yet, and we could just do our date on the weekend before. The night before our date, I mentioned that I needed to go to the grocery store sometime on Saturday and he kept telling me I wouldn't have time. I just could not figure out what we were going to be doing that would take the ENTIRE day, and make it so I wouldn't have time to go to the store to get broccoli! He told me to wear something nice, and to be at his house around 8 in the morning. I showed up shortly after 8 (took a little longer to get ready then I planned.) and walked into the house to see flowers on the table, and breakfast all ready. He was wearing his suit (minus the jacket, at this point) and I just kept thinking "Where the heck are we going?!". After a delicious breakfast, he put his jacket on, and we hit the road. I still had no idea where we were going, I just knew we were driving towards the bay area. We were coming up on Oakland, and I remembered that he needed to get some things from the Distribution Center next to the temple, so I told him we should just stop and get it, since we were right there anyways. He said we could just go later, but I insisted that we do it then. So he pulls across 3 lanes, and cut a few cars off, and we got off the freeway. We went into the store, got what he needed, and then he excused himself for a moment. When we were getting ready to leave, he took me up this little path behind the distribution center which was pretty, and private, and you could see the temple across the street. After a minute of standing, looking at the beautiful temple, he said to me "You want to go there with me, huh?" Well of course I did..I don't know how many times I've told him that. Now here is how oblivious I was to the fact that he was about to propose. We're standing across the street from the temple and he said "I have something I need to ask you" and I didn't even look at him, and my response was "Sure, whats up." Wow. Clueless! I finally turned to look at him, because he hadn't said anything else, and he was down on his knee. The first thing that came to my mouth was "What are you doing?". He wanted it to be a surprise, and boy was I surprised. He asked me "Well, I was wondering if you would marry me". I'm sure he was expecting me to shout Yes! right away, but all that came out of my mouth was "Are you kidding me?". Not exactly as he played it out in his head, i'm sure. Of course I said Yes! when I finally gathered myself. I was speechless. As he puts it "I wasn't afraid she was going to say no, I was afraid she was going into shock and I was going to have to preform first-aid or something." That was just the beginning of a wonderful Valentines date. We went into the city, and went to the Legion of Honor Museum (which is where he was actually planning on proposing) and spent a few hours looking at all the beautiful pieces of art there, and we finished the night at Ozumo, a Japanese restaurant. The service was fantastic, we got dessert on the house, which was a to die for chocolate fondue with fruit, and got to spend 3 hours at dinner without feeling rushed or pressured to get out. We came home from our fantastic, blissful day of being engaged, and told the news to my family. Of course they were excited! The next day we got to tell all our friends at church, the Stones and the Buells, and then we went over to Kirks parents house and told them, then we went to both sets of his grandparents. I think the most common reaction was "Finally!".  We've been engaged for just over a month now, and its been a rush. We're trying to do good planning, and get everything figured out, because the wedding is just around the corner. I know 3 months is still a little bit away, but if the past month is any indication about how fast the time is going to go, we don't have much time!
