How He Did It
On August 18th, 2012, we went to Starved Rock, a big nature preserve with trails to hike on and cliffs and (usually, when we're not in drought) waterfalls. I felt like something was up, just because I've got a pretty keen intuition, when we stood on an outlook over the water for quite some time. We ended up leaving the outlook, and then the park, so I thought nothing of it.
Well, we got in the car and on our drive back to my place, he said he had something really important he needed to talk to me about. So I was kind of nervous because I had no idea what he could need to talk to me about that would be so serious...
Anyway, we got back to my place and went inside. I had to use the bathroom, so when I came out, he was in the living room standing. I went up to him, gave him a hug, and asked what he needed to talk about with me that was so important. He pulled away a bit, with his arms around me, and said, "I have an important question to ask you." I gave him a surprised look and said, "Oh, ya do?!" and he said, "Yes. It may be the most important question of your life." He then proceeded to get down on one knee, to which I said, "Oh my God," and asked me to marry him.
I couldn't even speak, I just shook my head "YES" and cried.
The Ring
This part kind of makes me sad in a not-so-sad way. The ring he purchased was a size 7. It was WAY too big for my finger, so I went into Zales (where I knew he got it) and asked to have my finger sized. I wear a 5 and 3/4 - because I can't have a normal 1/2 or whole size. So I got to wear it for a whole hour before it got sent off to be resized. Hopefully I get it back by the 29th which would be almost 2 weeks. I miss my ring!
But here's some pictures:
YAY!!!!!!!!!
