it happened! mike proposed! on sept. 1, 2010 i officially became engaged! i cant believe it happened!
when i got home from work on wednesday afternoon mike asked me to come upstairs. after being somewhat annoyed because i didn't feel like it, i trudged up the stairs and into our bedroom. on the bed was my suitcase, passport, and boarding passes. did mike really plan a trip for us?! he did!
he booked us a long weekend in st. maarten! as if that itself wasn't enough, he told me to open my suitcase because he bought me something to wear on the trip. in the back of my head i was thinking "this really might not be good." i opened my suitcase and saw a ring box sitting inside it! my heart started beating out of my chest for a second before i dismissed it because i didn't want to get my hopes up again. i picked up the box, handed it to him and asked "what is it?"
that's when mike opened the box and got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. i was SHOCKED! i don't think there is even a word to describe the emotions that i was feeling all at once! i couldn't stop shaking and i'm sure i was blushing as well.
mike did a great job with everything! he planned a trip and proposed and i had NO clue any of it was coming. i'm a happy happy girl. still not used to the fact that mike is no longer my boyfriend but my fiance, and the fact that I'M GETTING MARRIED! i did pick out a perfect cake topper today though!
time to go back to enjoying paradise! i hope i chronicle everything about this engagement and wedding!
