THEY'RE FINALLY ENGAGED!
One year ago I first roommed with my friend Shailee Simmons who I met the year before in my student ward here at BYU-Idaho. That same semester, we happened to be in an FHE group with a boy named Aaron Drees, whom my whole apartment became really good friends with. Throughout the semester we became close and it became more and more evident that Shailee and Aaron would make an adorable couple. Unfortunately for us, this relationship was not to begin quite yet.
Throughout the next year, we stayed good friends with Aaron and apartment 203 was still not-so-secretly rooting for Shailee and Aaron to get together. Our wishful thinking and girlish 'what-if' plannings finally paid of at the beginning of this year when they officially became a couple. Soon after, we switched from trying to get them together to taking bets on when they would be engaged. (I'm telling you that they are a match made in heaven!) This spring semester has been so much fun taking and retaking bets on when that boy would get that pretty ring on that gorgeous girl. We all knew it was going to happen soon. Well, as of June 13, 2011 they are officially engaged and set to be married and sealed for time and all eternity this August in the Rexburg, Idaho temple! We are so excited for them!
If ever two people deserved to be together and enjoy every happiness that life can offer, it is my dear friends Shailee Simmons and Aaron Drees. It will be sad not having Shailee as a roommate anymore, but we all know that she is moving on to better things. I am so excited to celebrate their big day with them and cannot wait to see where life takes these two amazing people and the family that they will have in the future. Congratulations to my very dear friends! I could not be happier for you both!
