One of the best experiences of my
life to date would have to be when my husband proposed and we got engaged. The proposal was a complete shock to me; we had been dating for
about nine years at the time and because of that I always thought I would know
when the engagement was coming. I am so
glad I was wrong.
It was the perfect day. We were away on vacation in Sedona , Arizona Grand Canyon . At the end of a very long and tiring day we
found the perfect rock to sit on and watch the sunset on the rim of the canyon. I was tired and cranky and could not wait to
go back to the hotel which was hours away.
I was leaning on my husband and suddenly he moved and was fiddling in our
bag, and said, I have to ask you something.
Before I knew it he was down on one knee and asked if I would marry
him. And, after crying as my first
reaction, I said yes!
The second best part of that day was
calling home to tell everyone the news.
I will never forget the reaction at my parent’s house. I was on speaker phone and I got to tell
everyone at the same time. It was a very
emotional and exciting moment for
everyone. On May 31, 2006 a wonderful memory was
created, one that I will always remember like it was yesterday. It was perfect and the best part was that I
was completely shocked.
