The Many Adventures of You & Me

The Proposal

So pretty much I don't have time to type details, here are the highlites:

Jon COMPLETELY surprised me.

I didn't answer him for a few seconds because I was SPEECHLESS.

I had cue cards and still struggled

The ring we are having made won't be ready for a few weeks

The ring he gave me is getting resized but will move to my right hand

It was PERFECT

I can't believe he pulled it off.

The UTES won!

His sister and brother in law helped with the whole thing

He knew this would be a perfect setting

It was FREEZING!

I repeatedly asked if he was being serious

He knew not to put it on the jumbotron during the game

Apparently I saw the ring box a few days before...

I can't believe it really happened

There is video footage of this whole event

Im thankful for the footage because otherwise I wouldn't have remembered what happened

Jon was prepared for me to pass out

I finally said YES

He accomplished his goal of having it be a complete surprise

The plan is we are getting married on MAY 15th!

HOLY CRAP I'M ENGAGED!

I hope you enjoyed the condensed version. I still am trying to figure out what happened. More details to come when I remember them or watch the video again.
