The Proposal

After dating for six years Jeremiah and I starting talking about getting married. Actually, our very first "date" was to the mall in Rochester, MN where we looked at rings :) But this time we were more serious. I started dropping hints a lot and while shopping, I found "The One" and had the sales lady put it on a wish list for me. After going to see the ring, Jeremiah told me we couldn't afford it yet so I didn't think it would be happening any time soon. Then my dad mentioned that Jeremiah had called him to get together and "talk." While he didn't tell me why, I had my suspicions. Fast forward two weeks to the morning of Christmas Eve. It was about 8am and Jeremiah and I were laying in bed. He suddenly got up went to his truck and then came back into bed. While he held me in his arms he asked me if I loved him. I said "yes" . He said "Promie?" (Inside joke from our AIM days when I spelt promise wrong) and I said "Of course". Then he reached over to get the ring. He turned around and opened a ring box. He asked "Will you marry me?" I kept saying "Are you serious?" over and over and while he put the ring on my finger I finally said, "Yes!" After lots of calls to family he took me out to Bennihanna for lunch where he originally wanted to pop the question but with bad weather, he was worried we wouldn't be able to go. The proposal was perfect, just the two of us, morning breath and all, in love. I wouldn't have wanted it any other way.
