The Proposal!!!

Joe told me that he wanted to take me out on Sunday and that he would pick me up at 2pm.

He arrived with a marvelous bouquet of flowers.



(I told him that I don't like roses as a gift. He listened!)

We started on our journey down to uptown where we re-lived our first date. The reasoning behind that is because I brought up my wedding book on our first date and we talked about the topic of marriage. (Not necessarily to each other.)

So we went to Zeno Cafe in Uptown and we started to walk to Lake Calhoun. He was looking out at the people on the lake and asked me, "what are they doing?"
"They're walking on the lake Joe."
"That's weird!" -Joe
"You've never walked on a frozen lake before?!"
"I've lived in MN my whole life and never done that."

So... I dragged him out onto the ice. And I made him stand on a clear spot with me and look at all the cracks (from expansion). He kissed me and all of sudden went down on bended knee. Opened the ring box and proposed!




I said, "Of course!"
