All Smiles
Despite the horrid wind on Saturday, it was an absolutely perfect day......
....It was the day Mike finally officially proposed to me. We had planned to spend the day out in Gimli. When we got there, little Hailey was complaining that she was cold --- so Mike told me he thought he might have a jacket in the back for her. He asked me if I'd go and check in the back of his van, so I popped open the back door....there was no jacket, but there was the most gorgeous dozen roses I'd ever seen in my entire life. Hanging from the stem of one of the roses was a little mesh back with a white box in it. I knew at that moment that it was the ring.
He got down on one knee, right there in the parking lot....in front of the great expanse of the lake. It was beautiful and totally romantic and totally unexpected.
All this time I thought he just hadn't bought the ring....turns out he'd had it for a while but was just waiting for the perfect time to give it to me.
He's a keeper :)
