She Said Yes...

I figured I'd better tell the proposal story before I get too much into the planning details, I suppose its pretty important! Well, Mr. is pretty romantic. He isn't cheesy, his romance level is appreciated. One Saturday in August 2010 we decided to go out for brunch...our first 'free' Saturday in a while, so we wanted to relax. I told him to plan the day (we often switch making plans for one another for fun), so we started out at my favorite breakfast place, Denny's. We spent the next few hours driving around, going to different place that had some significance to us (and no I had absolutely no idea, clueless!). We went to the first house we offered on, where we went on our first date, to look at puppies, just random things. We went to the University because that's where I lived in rez for four years. We got out and walked around. It was so super windy I didn't want to walk to where we first met...the University bar. It's so out of the ordinary that we met there because we really aren't 'bar people.' (If you can label people that). He insisted since that's where 'it all started.' As we got closer I started to get somewhat suspicious, but I thought, oh my, I'm jumping to conclusions! Turns out I wasn't. Right outside the bar he got a little nervous and shaky. It was a Saturday, so no one was even around. He said some things about loving me and he always would, but I was so excited and nervous too I was just looking at how cute he looked at that moment. He got down on one knee and asked me to marry him...and I said "OH MY GOD ARE YOU SERIOUS?!" And he said yes, and then I said yes, and then he showed me the beautiful ring he had got me that I was too excited to see in the first place. And that's how it went. We went for supper to a great restaurant called Pasta Prima in town (so delicious-and you can buy home made pasta there any time on its own). We spent the rest of the weekend just hanging out and enjoying each other's company. Oh yes-and I also bought my first wedding magazine the day after...can you say excited? Today marks 50 months that we've been together...cheers my love!

These are a few pics I took the day after we got engaged out in the countryside. I was all smiles (and still am!)
