Just Engaged and Proposals

The Horse Is In Front Of The Cart - Finally Engaged!

He officially proposed this weekend with the help of a planner. It's hard to surprise someone that already knows its coming.
We met on Craigslist (yes, the crazy killer site before it was known for that) 4 years ago, so he posted an ad telling everyone he found the love of his life there and gave me an hour to get ready. He had a limo out front for me (him not in it) that took back to my hometown (city) about 20 miles away and went to the place where we had our first date on the beach. I went inside and he wasn't there but there was a card and a lemon drop (my fave drink) and a stargazer (my fave flower).
 I got back in the limo and then the driver took me to Color Me Mine which a local shop where you paint your own ceramics. I guess he had been there earlier and made a plate with a heart shape with a little sign that means I love you to us. I almost lost it then b/c it was really sweet, b/c he really hates going there.
 The driver then drove me along the ocean and I thought he was taking me to my old apartment where we first met and I lived for the first year of our relationship, but he passed it and then I thought he was taking us into Los Angeles and then he made a turn like we were going back. We ended up at the ports which is near where the have Mariachi (Mexican Music that is from where my family is from) and then we turned to an area I've never been to before. It was an area with fountains.
 He stopped and this guy I had never met before walked up and told me to follow him along with this other girl. I asked them who they were and they said they were friends of the bf and I was like I know all of his friends. I think they were just talking to me to keep me distracted. I kept walking with them and they haid their cameras out and then I saw one of my friends pop out of  a palm tree along the fountains with a sign that says "He loves you". I started crying a little. At that time the fountains start going off with a happy song and then I keep walking and another friend of mine pops out of another palm tree with a sign that says "you are the one" and the next friend has a sign that says "he lives for you" and then the our heart sign and the last friend I can't remember b/c I was crying too much. At the end he told me he loved me and asked me to marry him. He got down on one knee right at the high point of the song and the  fountains went crazy. I nodded yes, we kissed and I turned around and my 5 friends turned their signs and they said "congratulations."
One of my friends that I never see cry was crying and so was the planner (the strangers). He then took my friends and I for drinks and then followed it up with dinner. He took me back to my hometown and took me to a restaurant that overlooks the whole city. I told him whenever we go there I am bound to run into someone I know. Sure enough the elevator attendant was someone I grew up with Laughing.  I have to give FI bonus points for being able to dance sober b/c he never dances. On the way home we called his parents and stopped by my parents house to tell my parents, even though he had formally asked for permission the week before.

It was magical especially considering he surprised the girl who couldn't be surprised and he got my friends to keep a secret from me and got me to cry all in one shot.

I love him.
