6 years ago today! Wow, me being 19 and him 23 we were babies!
We were visiting his parents for Easter weekend.
We were visiting his parents for Easter weekend.
I thought a proposal might be coming.
I’d picked out the perfect ring,
been to visit a jeweler,
and he’d asked my daddy.
I wasn’t expecting anything large
maybe a ring in an plastic egg while I’m on a hunt
or at a nice dinner date,
BUT NO…
I can’t get a hold of him the morning of the 25th and finally when he answers his cell phone
he tells me he had to run to the bank.
I’m panicking because I’m at home alone with the
future mother in law
who I’m still trying to win over and am miserably failing.
{Remember clueless-2 girls sandwiched in between 7 boys-spoiled nurtured}
I try to take a super fast shower and get ready in a hurry.

You would have thought someone was timing me
and was standing near with a “perfect wife for our oldest son” checklist getting ready to say, “This girl will always keep you waiting.”
I didn’t know what we were doing for the day so I got dressed and his mom threw me a hoodie on my way out.
We walk out their back door and there is a helicopter waiting
My heart skipped a beat
and I’m guessing his mom was probably thinking that I was raised with a golden spoon in my mouth.
I didn’t even want to turn around and see if her face was disapproving.
I get that anxious feeling just writing this.
We were dropped off on a mountain where I saw breakfast and roses.
There was a beautiful wooden small box that someone had made for him while he was on his mission for
our church and it was made for his future wife.
It’s absolutely gorgeous and it only closes one way.
It is so special to me.
His speech was quick and sweet.
I’m pretty sure he knelt on a rock!
We had breakfast
{it was supposed to be an early dinner, but a storm was heading in}
and then went and head lunch with my mother in law and brother in law.

I love him more today than I did 6 years ago!
We’ve come a long way!
Happy proposal anniversary to us!

Have a great weekend!
