AW: I don't have a BF anymore!!!! :D

A shout out to the ladies on this message board. Without you all I wouldn't have let him do what he was going to do, when he was ready. <3!

BF is my FI! Anyone else think that is a weird word? fiance.

He proposed on Saturday at the inn we stayed at with this AWESOME hardcover book he designed using his graphic design skills, his cute story telling skills, and our vast collection of digital photos from the last 3 years. <3<3<3

    Sure Sure and it looks like a lot of engagements happened this weekend! I need to catch up :)
    Our story:
    We went and stayed at an inn for the weekend, and on Saturday, after cocktails with the inn owner (This cute OLD man in suspenders), we went into our room and he handed me a box the size of a textbook. (88 pages he said after the fact). I read it out loud through teary tears and then on the last page he got on one knee and asked me! Then the most fun part was hearing him go on and on about the planning that he had done to get this all together. Boys are so cute.

    Cover:

    Oh man!  That's so cute...and your ring is gorgeous!  Congrats, girl!

    And I know what you mean...it takes a little while before FI becomes a normal way to refer to him.  I'm not quite used to it myself Smile

    I'll be sure to tell him the girls on NEY dug his idea... I have to admit I knew he was up to something, with all his top secret computer work... but this-no idea!

    And all the obvious stuff he did I completely missed or fell for. i.e. fixing my broken laptop to pull all of my old photos of us to look through /> totally thought nothing of this. And him walking in the apt after work with a huge Macy's bag behind his back (apparently filled with other bags and random stuff from his car...) to throw me off> I was all . o O ((What the heck do I want from Macy's for our anniversary???))

    From above:
