Engaged





So as some as you have already heard..Chris and I are ENGAGED!!! Would you like to hear the story?! Of course your do.
We had spent the weekend in Smith Falls visiting Gloria and her fiancé Josh. It was a fun weekend and on the way home we stopped of at Lime Lake where his grandparents have a cottage. We spent the afternoon with his great uncle and family, skiing and chatting. Then in the evening we took the paddle boat out onto the lake. We fished for a bit but then wedged the boat against a log and to watch the sunset. We started reminiscing about out relationship we had first "noticed" each other and then when love came. The whole time I was like is he going to propose? But I kept telling myself he wasn't, cause if he didn't I'd be disappointed. He played with my true love waits ring and asked what I'd do with it when it came time for another ring to take its place. Then he told me that he loved me, and loved that I was a nice girl and that I could just hang out with his family even though I'd never met them before. Then he placed my hand on his chest and asked if I could feel his heart, I couldn't so I put my ear to his chest. "You make my heart beat fast" he said, then asked me what I was thinking...I was thinking about the huge dock spider behind us, so I asked him what he was thinking. He said "I'm thinking that I've decided I want to spent the rest of my life with you, but we can't continue our relationship until you get something." Then with a beautiful sunset behind him, he proceeded to get down on one knee(not easy in a paddle boat) and pulled out a ring box. Inside was this gorgeous ring just for me. I started to cry and said yes. We hugged, he said I love you and I managed to sob out I love you too.
I'm still kind of in "I can't believe this is real" mode, but loving it! We're planning for March 29, 2008 right now, woohoo eight months! YAY!
