About a week ago Mary announced to our group chat that her boyfriend Gabe proposed and they're getting married in July! This is particularly hilarious though because literally the day before this Emily snapchatted me to inform me that she and Josh, whilst not yet engaged, are already getting things together for a July 16th wedding.
Tonight Rachael and I planned a "Galentines" party and invited some people and we ended up having me, Rach, Mary, Emily, Emma, Ashlyn, Katie, and Grace. We had crepes and fondue and then each painted something onto a canvas while we talked about our lives. Now I was the only one aware of Emily and Josh's set date but whilst we were all together (all being Rach, Mary, Em, and me) Emily revealed to everyone that she and Josh had purchased a ring yesterday and were waiting for a call back from the Draper temple to reserve a sealing room for July 16th. We also learned that Mary and Gabe are planning for July 15th! So there will likely be two weddings in a row for us!
Near the end everyone had left except the four of us and we are just chilling talking about the weather and all of the sudden Rachael just goes, "I'm pregnant." and holy cow we all freaked out. Mary was just like, "What?" and I looked up and Em leaned over and Rachael repeated it and then we all got up and started screaming and the best thing is Rachael got the whole thing on video. I'll get her to send it to me and then include it in the post.
So basically so much good is happening and I am so so excited for all of my absolutely wonderful friends who all deserve the very best in this world.
