Okay, this is the last milestone post, at least for a couple of weeks. :) Two years ago today, Thomas proposed to me. I’ve got the original blog entry, and photo of the handmade ring Thomas made for me on my site.
- The Original Proposal Blog Entry (his version of the story is linked at the bottom)
There are two items that I forgot to include in that post:
First, I had suspected that we were getting close to getting engaged, so I was being an obnoxious girlfriend and suspecting that every fancy dinner or holiday was going to be *it*. I kept getting disappointed when it wasn’t *it*, so when he didn’t propose on our three year anniversary (the day before), I got pretty grumpy. What I didn’t know is that he had planned to, but because I was being a grump, I didn’t want to go for a drive in the VW Bus, which is what he was waiting for to propose. Oops.
Also, when Thomas proposed, he showed the weirdest nervous behavior. His eyebrows started spasming – rapidly twitching up and down. I’ve never seen him do it again, but they wouldn’t stop moving. It was really weird, but kind of cute too. :)
The photo in this entry was one of our engagement photos.

such a cute story! love the ring! I was quite the grump around the time that Jon proposed because I was getting so impatient. Luckily, he asked me two days before our second anniversary : )
These milestone posts are dear.
Aw, I love the milestones! Great story.
It’s funny how nervous they get, even though they know you’ll say yes. I was certain David was coming down with the flu when he proposed. He was pouring sweat and couldn’t eat dinner.
Great story! Love it.
This is a great milestone… you should definitly post about it!
I love the ring so much! what a cute story, and that photo is adorable!
How cool that the bus was even a part of the engagement. :) My hubby totally surprised me. I knew he wasn’t ready to get married anytime soon, or so I thought, we went to a movie and to dinner and he did it. I was stunned! I totally was not expecting it, and he had already talked to the kids and showed them the ring. Wow!
I really like that picture and have enjoyed reading your anniversary tidbits. How about sending me the picture to add to my screen saver.
I feel like the title of that picture should be “Love Me, Love My Bus”. :)
Aaw, congratulations! I love trips down memory lane! And it makes a cute love bus :D
