The Proposal

The most asked question to a newly engaged couple is "How did he do it?" 

   My friends were convinced it would be the night of our anniversary. I was almost sure it couldn't be, because I didn't notice a change in Mark. I thought I would be able to tell that he was acting different or nervous. However he kept his cool all day and I had no idea! 

   I'm not sure how he remembered, but I told Mark a long time ago that I wanted someone to take pictures when he proposed. We were going to Fleming's Steak House at the Summit, so we were dressed up. Before we left my house, I suggested we take a few candids.

 After Mom snapped a couple of pictures, I said, "Ok, lets go!" And Mark replied, "Hold on, we have to take one more picture." When I turned around to look, he was on his knee with the ring. He simply asked, "Will you marry me?"

  My mom and dad cried, I cried, and though he denies it, Mark teared up. It was simple and sweet, and the most exciting moment of my life. As we drove to the restaurant I got all the details on what led up to the question. He did ask my parents, and apparently he asked my dad TWICE, just to make sure I guess! 

      My ring is beautiful. It's a three stone with diamonds on each side! In the inside it says, "Past Present Future" and the words are separated by two tiny diamonds. It fits our relationship, because we have quite a past, I mean its been four years! But I'm so excited about the present, and more importantly, 
the future.
