Monday's Memory: Engaged

Now its nothing fancy and its rather short but I thought I'd share my memories of when Reggie proposed to me. Well I'd been waiting for him to ask me for about 2 years before he finally popped the question. I'd always get answers like "i'm not sure I wanna marry you yet." or "I have a plan just be patient." It frustrated me to no end. I was always used to hearing people dated for a few months and got married. We'd been together for 2 years almost 3 when he finally proposed.

Every year Reggie's family celebrates the family Christmases on Christmas Eve since they usually go to one of Joyce's siblings or her family comes to their house (it rotates every year.) We were going to spend Christmas Eve down here with his family and I was going to go to my moms for Christmas Day since Reggie had to work that year. I hated it so much but I couldn't help his schedule. Reggie brought over Spark of Insanity and we were playing it in the back ground. We'd finished dinner and I was watching in the recliner and Reggie's parents were in the kitchen cleaning up  when the clock hit 12 AM. Well Reggie got all excited and told me that I had to get my gift then. So he got a bag out from under the tree and got down on one knee. Took the ring box out of the bag and presented me with the ring. I about died. Then amid the pause you hear "SILENCE i KILL YOU!"  What timing right. :P

 Two years later I married him at the court house surrounded by the people we loved the most and we've been happy ever since and always will be no matter what happens in life.
