Ryan and I knew very early on in our relationship that we loved each other dearly and wanted to be married one day but were not in any hurry to walk down the isle, we just enjoyed each other and the fun times we were having with our new life together.  We decided to buy a different home with the news of little Payton's arrival.  So Ryan and I and Hunter went on the housebuilding adventure.  Our home took about 4 months to be build and it was set to close on July 14th, 2011.  Ryan and I had our final walk through the morning of the 14th so we met at the house as it was a work day for Ryan.  I had thought that we were finished with our walk through so we left and went our separate ways to finish our day with the plan to meet back up at closing.  Midday Ryan calls to tell me that we have to meet back at the house because there was something left undone with the builder that had to be dealt with before our closing, which was only a few hours away!  I was surprised but went ahead and actually listened to him this time.  He set up the whole thing with Hunter and Emily...Emily offered to bring Hunter and I over so that I  we could drive together to our closing...I thought it was a little weird but again did not suspect or question anything.  When we pulled up to the house Emily was asked to stall so that Hunter could get into the new house before me.  Emily was so sweet in sharing how much she cared and how thankful she was that I was becoming a part of the family.  When we were done talking she sent me into the house.  I walked in the door only to find a big beautiful home with Rose petals from the front door all the way throughout the house that led to Ryan standing beside Hunter staring at me.  I was so confused.  I walked towards them and Ryan got on one knee and said that he and Hunter had a question for me.  Hunter pulled out the ring from his pocket and handed it to Ryan.  Ryan said the nicest things to me...I was still somewhat confused, or maybe shocked.  I of course said yes and was so excited. It was even more touching to look over and see that Hunter had tears in his eyes from being so excited about our engagement!  We then had to go off to buy our home!!  The builder had apparently given Ryan the key to the house "a little early" :) It was a beautiful moment.
