Hey everyone,

Just thought I'd share this very special day in my life with my friends here. Today I proposed to Stephanie, my girlfriend of the past 3 years, and of course she said yes. I thought I would also share the pictures of the setup I had for her to arrive home to, and the picture of her ring............I will also include a picture of both me and Stephanie.......this will be the VERY first picture of myself I have posted here on these boards in my 3 years here.......so now you will all know how much of a nerd I am :D

I had called her a couple hours before, and told her that she didnt have to worry about coming and picking me up after I was done work as I would be stuck there an extra hour or so, so I would just give her a call when I was done. So when she got home, she had no idea I was already waiting for her. She walked in to find a dozen long stem roses upon the kitchen table and a trail of rose petals leading out of the kitchen, which led to a note in the living room hall-way. The trail of rose petals continued into my sports room, where I waited until she got there, and then got down on one knee and asked her to marry me. Of course she said yes, and the tears flowed.

As of right now we have put very little thought into the idea of when/where/how the wedding will be, most of those decisions will be hers to make. All I know is it will be in 2009 at some point, probably June.

But, I thought Id share this moment with all my friends and brothers here on these boards, you guys are like my second family and I love each and every single one of you guys. Enjoy the pictures as I know me and Stephanie will enjoy each other's companies MOST of the days of the rest of our lives :D

Congratulations and fix that gap in that laminate floor panel!

Floors will be all getting re-done in the next year or so hopefully. We bought the house almost 2 years ago, and who ever installed the floor did a piss poor amateur job of it.

Thank you to each and everyone of you and your comments. Its been a long 3 years, and it looks like it will become even longer now :D

As for the notebook paper........it works :D I was so broke from the ring/flowers/pedals/super, I had to cheap out on the paper :D

Xar
01-12-2008, 10:50 AM
I love you, and I know im not the most romantic person (cause im not) and that I sometimes fail at telling you exactly how much I love you. So I wanted to do something small to show my love for you, you are everything to me.

Something along those lines.

:D

I have to ask though what is with those colors in the basement? That carpet has to be older then you!:p

Xar
01-12-2008, 12:29 PM
LOL

I actually like that carpet in the basement........main reason.......Tenants.

That type of carpet is very easy to keep clean, and even when you get a stain, its not noticable.

When we are done renting out the basement, then I may have to do some renovations tho :D
