Two Years Ago

March 26th, 2008 by Sallad

Okay, this is the last milestone post, at least for a couple of weeks. :) Two years ago today, Thomas proposed to me. I’ve got the original blog entry, and photo of the handmade ring Thomas made for me on my site.

There are two items that I forgot to include in that post:

First, I had suspected that we were getting close to getting engaged, so I was being an obnoxious girlfriend and suspecting that every fancy dinner or holiday was going to be *it*. I kept getting disappointed when it wasn’t *it*, so when he didn’t propose on our three year anniversary (the day before), I got pretty grumpy. What I didn’t know is that he had planned to, but because I was being a grump, I didn’t want to go for a drive in the VW Bus, which is what he was waiting for to propose. Oops.

Also, when Thomas proposed, he showed the weirdest nervous behavior. His eyebrows started spasming - rapidly twitching up and down. I’ve never seen him do it again, but they wouldn’t stop moving. It was really weird, but kind of cute too. :)

The photo in this entry was one of our engagement photos.

    such a cute story! love the ring! I was quite the grump around the time that Jon proposed because I was getting so impatient. Luckily, he asked me two days before our second anniversary : )

    Aw, I love the milestones! Great story.

    It’s funny how nervous they get, even though they know you’ll say yes. I was certain David was coming down with the flu when he proposed. He was pouring sweat and couldn’t eat dinner.

    How cool that the bus was even a part of the engagement. :) My hubby totally surprised me. I knew he wasn’t ready to get married anytime soon, or so I thought, we went to a movie and to dinner and he did it. I was stunned! I totally was not expecting it, and he had already talked to the kids and showed them the ring. Wow!

    I really like that picture and have enjoyed reading your anniversary tidbits. How about sending me the picture to add to my screen saver.

    I feel like the title of that picture should be “Love Me, Love My Bus”. :)
