Brice and Emilie...the future Mr. & Mrs. Villaflor!!!

Yeah...the engagement has finally happened!!! My sister, Emilie, and her boyfriend, now fiance, of 5 1/2 years, got engaged on Saturday night. I'm so very excited for them!!! Brice took Emilie out for dinner at the Olive Garden here in Valencia, and after they finished their meal, Brice suggested that they go for a walk out by the waterfall right outside the restaurant. So they went out there, walked around for a few minutes and Brice said, " Okay, we are going to play a game. It's called sit on this bench and kiss your boyfriend." So they sat down and Em kissed him on the cheek, and then Brice said, "Okay, the next part of the game is to stare at that tree for five minutes." Emilie was pretty confused, but went along with it reluctantly. :) She just closed her eyes and started singing to herself. (I'm sure she probably looked a little special ed just sitting there with her eyes closed humming.) ha ha ha. Anyway, Brice came back and she opened her eyes and told her that five 1/2 years ago, he read her a poem and asked her a question (when they started dating) so he read her a beautiful poem that he had written. (Em was already crying) Then he whanded her a piece of paper rolled up with a big fatty fake ring around it. She opened it up and it was a birth certificate for a build-a-bear that he created for her that was all dressed up in a wedding dress. She turned around to look at it, as Brice had put it behind the bench and when she turned back around, Brice was down on his knee with the actual ring. He asked my sister to marry him, and the rest is history. Of course, she said yes, and was very emotional. She and Brice are GREAT for each other and I'm so excited to have Brice in the family...offically. He's going to make my sister a very happy bride!!! Congratulations again guys...and Brice, nice job on the ring!! It's just what she wanted and she LOVES it! When I get a picture, I'll post it for everyone to see!! So, wedding central, here we come. Next month, Mary and Kyle, November will be Em & Brice, and Katy and Beau in February!!! It's gonna be AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!
