Ok I'm starting this blog off by saying I LIED!!!LOL  I said I wasn't talking about Leisa and Bryan anymore but WRONG!! Yes they are OFFICIALLY engaged now!  She could NOT be happier!!  She broke up with him for the 2nd time on this past Monday and he was blindsided and absolutely sick to the point of not eating or sleeping all week.  She just wasn't sure that he was ever going to be on the "same page as her" and be able to actually ever go through with a proposal, marriage, etc.  He tried to get her back all week but she wasn't answering text or phone calls because she said it was too hard to rehash it over and over.  So yesterday he sent her a dozen gorgeous roses to work and asked that she just talk to him that afternoon.  Yesterday morning when she took Austin to school Bryan was in the parking lot greeting kids and she said when she saw him she was sick because he had lost about 10 pounds and you could see he was a wreck.  As she drove away, she saw him call Austin back from the sidewalk and was talking to him.  Austin said he told him that he missed him and that he loved him like a son.  They talked yesterday afternoon and worked everything out but he wanted to come talk to me.  Good thing I didn't have my jams on yet!lol  He told me how much he loved Leisa and that he was empty without her.  He wanted my blessing for them to get married and that he would spend everyday for the rest of his life trying to do everything he could to make her happy.  He had already gotten down on his knee and proposed and the whole bit to Leisa and she was so thrilled!!!  They have gone to the jewelry store and ordered all the rings including her diamond and his band.  He was planning all along to propose to her on their Anniversary of meeting which is September 14 but that didn't happen!lol  His plan all along  was to take her to West Mountain here in Hot Springs and propose so he's going to propose again with the ring as soon as it is sized which should be this coming week.  It is funny because Leisa had told me a long time ago that she dreamed of someday being proposed to on West Mountain (it's beautiful and overlooks Hot Springs) and she just knew the man would know that was the place.  She had never told Bryan and of course when he told her his plan, she cried and cried cause she knew it was the sign.  He is so excited too and can't wait to go to school on Monday and tell everyone he has a fiancee!lol  They are going to get married in our church here and they are asking my pastor Scott that we all love to marry them on 1/1/2012.  Bryan asked Austin to stand up with him along with his brother and Leisa is going to have Katilyn and Brittney.  Bryan has a granddaughter that is going to be a flower girl!  Brittney will be glad it's NOT her as the flower girl in Leisa's first wedding about did her in!LOL Bryan called his Mom and Dad (stepdad) and she said "well it's about time"!!!lol  They called Katilyn and she's thrilled for them too and Bryan told her that he loved her like a daughter.  I am so thrilled for Leisa and Bryan because this past 3 years have had highs and lows but they've made it together!  It makes me miss Dean more since he's not here to share in this with us but I know he's watching over us all.  Mark your calendars for that date and come sit with me!lol  Love to all, Judy
