Well, today i proposed to sandra. It was great, she had no idea it was coming so soon. It was great, earlier in the week Kristen said that she would go with sandra to see the ring thursday afternoon after choir rehearsal. So i knew that she had no idea that i had already bought the ring. I was going to let her go and show it to kristen only to find that it was gone(i had told the guy at the store to tell her that someone else bought it) but in the end i decided that it might be too cruel. So I decided that i would propose at choir. It worked out pretty good. We were in the chapel and over the past year it has been a pretty important place for us. We met there, we have spent a lot of time singing together in choir there, and we also lead a worship team together there. It seemed like the perfect place. Also we were surrounded by all our friends and people who cared about us. So after we were done class i said that i needed to make an announcement. I stood in from of everybody and said...........
"As you all know, just over a year ago i met the most amazing girl in the world"
(at this point sandra dropped her water bottle)
"I met her here so i figured that it was appropriate to do this here too"
(at this point i pulled out the ring)
"Babe, i love you more than you can even know"
(at this point i was very close to crying so i wrapped it up quick)
(i went down on one knee)
"Will you marry me?"
At this point she managed to squeak a yes and i put the ring on her finger. Turns out i made a bunch of people cry. Everyone cheered and hugs were given all around. It turned out great. Then after kristen and sandra of course cancelled their ring viewing and Brett, kris, sandra and i went out for dinner. All in all a great day. And i look forward to many more great days. Here are a couple pics of the ring.
ps just a quick note. The wedding may actually be in aug 2007. just a heads up
or maybe dec.
