Easter + an Engagement = Family Love

Linking up with Syndal & Sar for 'This Weekend I...'

 

This weekend was a nice break from all the tax season stress. This weekend was all about spending time with family! I loved seeing everyone and loved witnessing my sister being proposed too!!!

 

Tate and I went to church and then headed straight to my Grandparents in Austin, MN for the rest of the day. We enjoyed good food, great company and many games of Solitaire Frenzy!!

 

The super cute tulips my mom brought for my Grandparents!!!

 

My sister and I with our Grandpa - Mom feeling the lil' guy move!!!

My family with my Grandma & Grandpa (minus my brothers).

 

Now to the engagement...Jordan (my sister's then boyfriend, now fiance) had messaged me a month ago asking if I knew Hannah's ring size. I did not and told him to not worry about it and that resizing is not a problem (luckily, he picked the right ring size)!!

 

He wanted to propose on Easter @ my Grandparents in front of family. He knew that Hannah would have no idea...and she didn't. I helped him organize everything, but he planned it all. It was so cute in the last month seeing how nervous he got and excited about the day coming. Everything played out perfect and my sister was completely shocked!

 

Jordan decided to send her on a treasure hunt. He wanted to involve family. After we took the family photo, I gave Hannah an egg with a note inside. She was confused but read it. It said to go find her first present under G&G's bed. There she found a note stating how we were all so proud of her for how she was doing in nursing school and a Coach purse. She thought we all bought it for her...haha, little did she know. The note told her to give her Grandparents a hug and a kiss. Then my Grandma gave her another note that told her hard work pays off and to find her next gift in the closet. There she found a Coach wallet and a note telling her to give our parents a hug & kiss. Then my dad gave her another note that said her next gift was in the guest room on the dresser. There she found 2 dozen red roses. She then came back into the living room to Jordan on one knee asking her to marry him. Her face was priceless. She still at that point had NO IDEA and thought we all bought her these nice things....but Jordan did it all!!! She of course said YES!!!

 

I am so so so excited for Jordan to become my brother in law officially next year sometime. My sister and Jordan have always talked about doing a destination wedding and still want too. This excites me very much :)

 

LOVE <3
