An Early Wake Up call that was totally worth it!

We're ENGAGED!!!
AHHHH!!! I cannot believe that I'm engaged to Mr. Philip M. Moore! Who would have thought that a facebook instant message would lead to a proposal? Well I'm sure you want to hear the story if you haven't heard it already so here it goes...

Yesterday I went to work, same ole same ole. I call Philip everyday when I get off for lunch at 11:30, so when I call him and he tells me that he's leaving the apartment going to grab some food before heading in to work. Okay nothing odd about that. Well it turns out he was really heading down to Dothan to ask for my mom's permission! After work I got my hair cut and Philip met me for chips and dip at Jalapenos. He was in a button down and khaki's, I thought it was odd and he said the big guy came into the gym so he had to look nice. Okay, whatever. So last night I go to class and he went over to my dad's to tell the kids goodbye before we left for Mississippi. Nothing to off about that either. When I got there I was really tired and needed to go home to pack so we left. When we got to my house, Gigi was home. Now that was really weird and I started to suspect something. But Philip shortly said good night and left for the night.
This morning Philip came to pick me up for the March of Dimes Charity breakfast at Chappy's. I wanted to go to this since March of Dimes is so close to my heart and Philip offered to go with me. He told me that he would pick me up so we could just have one car in town when we left for Starkville. So Philip got to my house around 5:30AM. He told me to get ready, so I hopped in the shower and got dressed. After I was ready to go he said he wasn't really hungry at the moment so we just laid around and watched FRIENDS. Then after about 15 minutes he said, "Okay I'm hungry. Lets go." Then he handed me my phone and said, "I think your phone is broken." Blackberry's have a black screen if you lock them and in order to get them to light up you have to unlock it. So I pressed the button and noticed that my back ground had been changed. When I looked at it I realized it was a picture of him holding a ring box in his hand in my room! He said my eyes got really big. (Understandable!) Then I looked at him saying, "Oh my gosh!" He said, "Peyton I love you and I something something something" (I can't remember it at all because I was in shock and on cloud nine!). He got down on one knee and said, "Peyton, will you marry me?" And I said "Yes!!!" I hugged and kissed him a million times. I had to take my other ring off that I got for graduation and I put on my engagement ring! It is so beautiful and everything I could have ever dreamed of!

After a few more hugs I tried to call my mom but she didn't answer so we went downstairs to tell Pop and Gigi. They were shocked as well! I told Gigi, "Philip just proposed!" And she said, "To who?" Hahahaha! I showed them my ring and Pop asked Philip where his ring was. Philip told him that I got the ring but Pop gets his heart! We then headed over to my dad's to tell them. Dad already knew because Philip had talked to him the day before. When we walked in, Dad was already up and he gave me a hug and told me congratulations. I went into the bedroom and woke up the kids and Becca to tell them. I just shoved my hand in Becca's face and she was like, "Oh my gosh!" She was so excited! EG and EMan were kinda out of it still so it took them a few minutes for it to register. EMan was very excited though. T-rip was still sleepy so he wasn't as enthused.

After we left there we headed to town to get something to eat, even though I was way too excited to eat. We finally got a call back from my mom and she was so excited for us! She's called 3 times since then and every time she sounds more and more excited! Jenna also got a call and wanted to know all about it. The Moores were called and within minutes of telling the TheTallOne the world of Facebook knew!

So it's official! Philip Moore and Peyton Clark are engaged!!!! We haven't set a date yet but will keep everyone posted as soon as we do. Thank you for reading this long post but hey this day deserved it!

This was the back ground on my phone!

(Do not judge my nasty floor!)



This is my ring! I love love love it!!!

It's an antique and it could not be more perfect for me!
