The Engagement Story

ok all you wonderfully curious people, here is my ADORABLE story:so the week of march 29th, andrew had been PROMISING that he was going to get me a ring...well...the week came and went and nothing...no ring. so...along came friday, and still nothing. he was going to make me dinner that night because he's cute and likes to do that, and i couldn't go over to his house because i had forgotten about volunteering to help at the murder in the dark that our youth group was having...he was ticked...so we did that and the other ring that i had gotten a year ago for valentine's day was broken that night and he just shrugged it off...i was to kranky at him to think much of it.so saturday comes...i had volunteered to help at the easter egg hunt that they were having at church and andrew wanted to make me lunch. he kept calling me and i was like ANDREW I WILL CALL YOU WHEN I'M DONE...so i went over there like an hour before the hunt ended and he started to make me lunch. i was sitting in his kitchen while he was making lunch and we were just chatting...he was recalling the time that he had first kissed me and we had fought about where it was before...he was like you were right, it was down by the lake. (his parents have lake shore property) and i was like, yes...yes i was thank you very much...haha! (go figure...me right? haha!) ne wayz...so we were chatting about that and i noticed a box on the table...a box quite like the one that i had gotten my other ring in...and my necklace, but that one was longer and shorter. i picked it up and shook it and asked andrew why it was empty. he was like, isn't that your necklace box? and i was like, uh no, i have that at home and it's a different size...and he was like i don't know then. and his mom started talking to me and i didn't think anything of it.so then we were going to go shopping to buy a ring...haha! and we were going to leave and he started driving the wrong way...i assumed he was going to talk to his dad because we were headed toward the field. (his dad is a BIG dairy farmer) and he was like oh, i want to see the lake in the day...i was like UH OK...NOT RIGHT NOW I WANT TO GO GET THE STUPID RING THAT I HAVE HAD PROMISED TO ME SINCE LIKE JUNE!!!! i didn't say that, but in my mind i was sure thinking that...ne wayz. so we went to the lake and i was like ok, let's go. he's like well let's take a walk...um no thank you let's go walk at the mall...haha again, just what i was thinking, not what i said. but i protested several times before finally getting out of the car and walking to the edge of the lake with him...long walk...NOT! i rolled my eyes and was like, i knew we weren't actually going to walk...so we stood there for a while, talking about when we first started dating and then he started reaching into his pocket and he got down on one knee in a swift motion and started saying sweet things to me and then pulled out a ring and asked me to marry him...all i could say was...YOU ACTUALLY GOT ONE?! haha!and then we headed back to his house after he put the ring on the wrong finger and i had to correct him...(he was nervous)...like he had to be because technically i had already said yes. but then we were on our way back to the house and he was like did you ever give me an answer and i was like i don't think so...and then we were distracted by him mudding in his monte carlo (SWEET!) and then we got to the house and his dad talked to us for a minute and then we headed to dick's market in town to show samantha and he asked me again what my answer was and i said no. haha! and that's the last answer he's had. HAHA! i'm such a terrible person. haha!but that's my story and i love it and i wouldn't have wanted it any other way. it was perfect!
