Soooo...I guess I'm off the LIW list sooner that I had expected! FI (!!) proposed Friday night  He told me at 3:45 to be ready in 2 hours. But I hadn't been feeling 100% so I just stayed on the couch and decided to hop in the shower a 5. When he got to my apartment to pick me up I wasn't ready and he wasn't happy lol. I didn't see what the big deal was...we never go to dinner that early and I'm always late. He said he was really hungry and sat on my couch pouting. I didn't really think anything of it and got ready in 30 minutes. (and apologized  ) We got to the restaurant and had a 30 minute wait...which made him even more anxious. Also, while we were sitting at the bar a waitress spilled a shaker right under my feet. (I don't know how it didn't get on me.) Once we got to our table I noticed that J was eating super fast! He also got a phone call from a "friend he met at football camp." The guy wanted us to meet up with him where he was staying, the Traditions dorm. (where FI and I met in the laundry room lol) J is always making friends so once again I didn't really think anything of it. I was kind of excited to go inside since it has been almost 3 years. As we were walking up to the side entrance I said, "how are we going to get in? We don't have an access card." J replies, "Well maybe someone will open it for us." We got up to the door and there was a water bottle propped up to keep it open. This is when I got nervous. We walked down the hall...towards the laundry room... and I could see rose petals. He had to pull me in the room and I kept saying "OMG what are you doing? I can't believe this!" There were flowers and candles everywhere...it was so beautiful!! He had 4 of his friends from football set it all up...exactly to his specifications. I can't believe he did all of this for me! Of course I said yes and then we went out with friends to celebrate  Now that I look back at it, I'm really surprised that I didn't even cry. It was such an out of body experience. I wish all of you ladies the best of luck!! I started on the list at #129 and now I'm signing out at #69. Hopefully your stay will be short and sweet. As for the ring...It's a simple 6-prong solitaire with my great-grandmother's 1.19ct diamond. It's such a sparkler! I'll post pics in the SMTR thread soon! Here's the set up of the laundry room. My mom loves how colorful it was! (he even used purple and pink...my favorite colors)

That is such an amazingly sweet story! I love it when guys make special plans and get all nervous about them! I bet he was nervous about his football buddies setting it up lol Congratulations! I will be searching for your SMTR thread soon.

(it cracks me up!) OMG those candleholders are HILARIOUS! The funny thing is that they would have been so gaudy in other settings but for a proposal like his they are incredibly adorable! I can picture him and his buddies at the craft store debating about whether to put anything engagement related in their cart haha I love the pink color of the petals! “We are not self-employed.” ~ Gen.

This proposal is just too sweet. He did such a good job planning that for you! CONGRATULATIONS! I saw your SMTR thread, and your ring is so pretty and classy. Have so much fun at your candle passing (I always wanted one of those, but I graduated from college three years ago and just got engaged recently, so none for me). Best wishes for a future filled with love, success, good times, laughter, and happiness!
