This past spring break, something very exciting happened! My roommate and close friend Tegan got engaged. We knew (and hoped) that it would happen sometime in the near future. The whole time I was in Mexico I was out of the loop, dying to know if the question had been popped. It was so frustrating knowing that something monumental might happen at any minute and that I wouldn't know about it! Anyways, I was delighted to hear about the engagement because she and her boyfriend (now fiancé!) are so fun to be around, and I love them as a couple. I am thrilled for Tegan and this new chapter of her life she is embarking on.
This morning, as I was getting ready for class, I noticed a handmade card propped up next to my sink. It turns out the note was from Tegan asking me if I would like to be a bridesmaid in her wedding. In that moment, my heart felt so enormous inside of my chest. Tegan's friendship has been invaluable to me over the past year, and she has helped me grow as a person in surprising, but awesome ways. We mockingly call each other "sisters in Christ" but it really does feel that way.
I have only been a bridesmaid in one other wedding- my sister's in which I was the proud M.O.H. But I loved it, and I am excited to be a part of Tegan's big day as well. That being said, I am now even more excited for what this summer is going to bring me!
Thanks, 2012 for being awesome!
