I'm engaged!: Posted: Feb 9, 2009 1:57 PM; I got engaged yesterday! I wasn't expecting that my bf/fiance would
propose this weekend, we had snowboarding plans with friends on
saturday, but I knew it was coming. He wasn't trying to be too sneaky
about it :-p For my birthday last June he had made a book of drawings
illustrating different points in our relationship and little adventures
we've had together. All in stick figures :) So last week he said he
needed to borrow the book. Then we were going out shopping yesterday
and he was like, "um, we need to bring this with us." After shopping he
suggested we go to the beach and we walked on some rocks and sat down.
He flipped through all the pages in the book, showing them to me. He
added some news ones to incorporate the events since June, and the last
page was a picture of us at the beach with him holding out a ring box.
Then he took out the box and asked me to marry him :) I said yes :)
