brooklynn and aaron are engaged!!!



she broke the news via text (a big no-no, but i forgive her. plus, i was the first she called and told the story to) as i was in the bathtub playing Words with Friends. i got out of the bath to run into the living room to tell the fam but they had already seen it on facebook. ha. typical brooklynn!

i'm so excited for them. their love story is my favorite and brooklynn makes fun of me for telling it to random people all the time. but i can't help myself. aaron is the epitome of a good man and treats brooklynn like every woman dreams and deserves to be treated. he should teach man lessons.
brooklynn is one of my very best friends and has been a constant source of laughter, accountability, and consistancy in my life. she's one of those friends who will always be honest and tell me the things i might not want to hear, but need to hear- not for the sake of bringing me down, but to build me up and have my back along the way. she's so awesome; i hope everyone has a friend like her.

i tried proposing a couple of christmases ago, but my ring of seaweed didn't suit her innermost desires.



re-enacment:


since i'm feeling sentimental- a new friendship...freshman year of college


new years 2008 in maine; this summer in california :)


i would put funny memories on here, but there are too many and they probably would only be funny to us. i'll just say that most of them involve quoting chris farley movies, snl, staying up into the wee hours of the morning crying and/or making embarassing videos, the internet, and laughing our heads off.

*EDIT if this convo (from facebook) doesn't sum up our friendship, i don't know what does.

Katie Johnson ok what the heck on my news feed it says "brooklynn mears is engaged to aaron salvato" and then theres a picture included of karen with an umbrella..???! hahahhahaha
