Them on Today


Kaitlin & Reed are in NYC!!

Here's a run down so far...

They got to New York City this afternoon and were able to do some sight seeing tonight before their BIG debut tomorrow! They will be picked up from their hotel around 6 am to head over to NBC studios then go straight to hair & make-up. They will do the segment twice. Once around 8 and I think after 9?! After that they have the rest of the day to sight see some more! They have already been recognized by a young kid in the Houston Airport! We are all very excited for Reed & Kaitlin! We can't wait to have them home to hear all the stories!

Good luck!

I'm Engaged!!!

The day I've been waiting for has finally arrived. Its true, I'm engaged. But there is more to it than just a simple proposal. In fact its anything but simple.


I knew that he was proposing soon I just had NO clue when but I did not expect what actually happened. Last night after our Institute class our friends suggested for us all to go get frostys at Wendy's. So i agreed to go along since thats just a kind of thing we usually do.


We show up at Wendy's and I sit down with a couple friends while Reed is paying for our frosty. He comes to sit down and hands me mine. I start slowly eating away since after all it is ice cream and I hate brain Freezes. Then one of my friends gets the bright Idea to race, i'm up for a little competition so I agree to go along and start scarfing my frosty down. I mean I was taking huge bites and swallowing there was no tasting at all.

I get to the end and everyone starts staring at me with this weird worried look on their face and I have no clue what is going on around me. Reed picks up my cup looks in it and of course it is empty. Then he starts looking all around me like he lost something. Then everyone starts digging in their cups and looking around them. I have no clue what is going on this whole time.

Finally Reed gets up and tells me that he thinks I swallowed my ring. I could not believe it! I swore that i would've felt it but he gave me the right cup and thats the only place it could've been. The whole time i thought he was joking and i was waiting for him to propose. Then he suggests to go to the Emergency Room and get an xray.

We start to drive over and the whole time i still think he is joking. I was waiting for him to pull over and propose but it doesn't happen. We get to the hospital and walk in and check in and i realize this really must be happening.

We get the x-ray and there it is!!!!! Oh my goodness I could not believe that my engagement ring is in my stomach! I didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but i think i did a little of both.

We go back to his house and he does the real proposal with the xray in hand haha with his family and our friends watching. But of course I said Yes even after all i just went through. Then we go off to tell my family what happened and they could not believe it and haven't stopped laughing ever since. Yes it is such a crazy fun story but i'll be much happier once its out haha.

Good new is that we got another x-ray and its moved quite a bit and is about to enter my large intestine. So my estimated arrival date is tomorrow afternoon. Lets just hope and pray!

Now just stop laughing for a moment and watch the video that my friend Racquel recorded. It is a bit lengthy but I promise its worth it!





I still can't belived this happened but it did. I'm not sure I would belive this story if I was anyone else especially coming from me. Its crazy and insane but thats my life. :)
I've been filled with fiber all day and been drinking tons and tons of water so hopefully everything goes smoothly literally hahaha

I will keep everyone updated on what happens next. But all kidding aside I'm so excited that i'm finally engaged and can't wait to spend the rest my life with the man of my dreams :)
