FINALLY! You wait your whole life to find the man of your dreams and have the perfect proposal and it has happened to me...
On Wednesday July 6th Brian proposed to me by the riverbank in Saskatoon during intermission of Shakespeare on the Saskatchewan where we were watching a modern day version of "Loves Labours Lost"
He came home from work and made chicken fettucini alfredo for me complete with white wine and candles. Then he serenaded me with his lovely guitar playing and singing. We got dressed up and he took me out on a date to a Shakespeare play. After the proposal it was very hard to sit through the second half of the play and concentrate. I have to say, I have no idea what happened after that point! haha
He bought me a beautiful 18 karat white gold engagement ring with a princess cut diamond. It is exactly what I have always wanted...
We came home and called our family to tell them the good news. We then went out to one of our favorite pubs(walking distance from our house) and had our usual pint of beer and a battered veggie appetizer.
I am still on cloud nine and have been already making plans and lists of things to do. I cannot wait for the big day. We are not sure of a date yet and have some discussing to do in terms of date, location and budget before the ball will start rolling.
I am very happy! Those of you that have met Brian know that he is a wonderful guy and we are great together and for those of you that have never met him I know you will love him!
I am on summer break right now so have tons of time to look at bridal magazines and plan things and stare at my ring;-) I have been offered a full time, permanent teaching contract here in Saskatoon and will start teaching Grade 4 in the fall. Everything in my life has finally fallen into place.
Hope all is well with you all. Miss you and love you
