On Cloud Nine, Maybe Ten!

Well so here is how my day went yesterday. I went to work, generally not a highlight of my day lately, but I had a really great meeting and I may get to start working on a really cool new project! So that was good. Spent the afternoon away from the office doing some field work, always a bonus to be outside. Especially since lately it has only rained!!!! And yesterday was sunny, a little hot, but most importantly sunny! So then at the end of the day my boyfriend texted to see if I wanted to come over for spaghetti. I of course said yes, as it is my favorite meal! So I headed to his place after work and walked in to find a beautifully set table. He had put out a tablecloth, bought me a dozen roses, a great bottle of wine and the food was on the table waiting! I was somewhat surprised by all of this, because although he is an amazing boyfriend none for surprising me, I could not think of an occasion. So I posed the questions "What is all this about?", to which he replied that he knew I had been stressed lately and just wanted to cheer me up! Well did it ever work.

So then we sat down for a great dinner and wonderful conversation. After we finished he said he was going to get dessert. Dessert...could it get any better! Well just keep reading!

So here I am sitting happily full from pasta, dreaming of cake...when he comes around the corner with a small silver platter with a small box that appears to have a shiny object in it. Before I could even wrap my mind around what I was seeing, he asked "Will you marry me, baby?" And through the tears I said YES! At which point I jumped up and hugged him. He then asked if I would like to see my ring, which he had to hastily put down when I jumped up into his arms. I said yes and he put it on my finger. This has got to be on of the best moments of my life. So, that is why I am still floating in the clouds. And if you will look over there, you will see my beautiful ring!
