6 years ago

six years ago yesterday mike was asking me to marry him after a month of dating. who knew right. well i kind of did because we had only been dating like 2 or 3 weeks when we told each other that we love each other. then a week after that we started talking about getting married. even started planning it and we wasnt offically engaged at the time. i gave mike a couple of examples of rings that i liked. and then like a week of showing him which ring i liked he asked me to marry him. he had called me one friday morning to let me know that he had order me some flowers and that i should get them that day. ( that is how he was letting me know that he was going to ask me) well i didnt get the flowers. the website he used canceled the order. i know stupid website. he gets in late that night. i knew he had my ring with him and i guess i couldnt wait to get my ring LOL so i started trying to at least get him to let me see. so we was laying in bed and he gets up and looks in his suit case and comes back to bed and asked me to marry him. so the next day we announced to everyone that we was offically getting married. then we set a date for july 3 2004. so we waited a year to get married. it took us from july to dec to find a place to get married at. so we was finally got to order our invitations and had them mailed out by jan of 2004. and ethen everything started coming together with the planning. it was stressful and some what not to fun in planning it but i wouldnt change a thing because it was worth it all. because i married the man who is my soulmate. he has the other half of my heart.
