Getting Hitched!

Tuesday, November 3rd was my three year anniversary. Phil and I decided that we didn't really have any money so we were just going to be laid back about it. We went to Flat Top in Bloomington (one of my favorite restaurants) and debated whether or not to see a movie. We decided against it and headed back to Lincoln. On the way Phil asked if we could stop at the school. When we got there we went into the coffee shop so he could use the bathroom. As he was going in, he put a note in my pocket.

He wrote that he knew how much I enjoyed scavenger hunts, so that's what we were going to do. (Also, that's the way that Phil asked me to be his girlfriend three years ago. A scavenger hunt that led me to him and then he asked me). The first clue led me to the place where we watched on first movie as boyfriend/girlfriend. The next clue led me to where our 'pet' rock had lived for a very long time. The third and final clue led me to where he had asked me to be his girlfriend. It took me forever to find the last night, but I finally found it. I opened up the note and the ring fell out. He got down on his knees to pick it up and then... dun dun dun, since he was already on his knee he turned a looked up at me and asked me to marry him!

I was so surprised! I think I even asked him if he was serious. And I of course asked him if he had asked my dad. And then I said yes!

It was an awesome three year anniversary.

Now on to the more difficult part of planning a wedding and figuring out all of that stuff that goes along with it.

We have already decided on a date. It will be May 22, 2010. So mark your calendars!

Thanks for sharing in this exciting moment with me!!
