It's Happening!

I was having a good day at work (Breeze in was my part time position), I told my best friend I would Hi Five the next person to walk in the door. As I was standing on the shelving below the counter because I'm short.. I held my hand out, while looking him in the eyes, right after he walked through the door. My best friend implied "So are you just going to leave her hanging?' He had the look of confusion, raised one eyebrow and awkwardly high fived me; as he walked away smiling.

My plan to propose, We had plans to travel to Seattle and we talked about it for a while being a family vacation. So it began to take form in my head. I bought the ring a few months ahead of time and knew I was gonna do it in Seattle, but I just didn't know where... The day before we left for Seattle, I asked her mom if she would be okay with me asking her daughter to marry me... The reason I waited til the last day was because I knew she could not for the life of her keep a secret from Anita. That and her dad is not with us anymore, even though I bet he would approve he would have gave it away as well. We get to the airport and her mom was crying, she almost gave it away but Anita thought it was something else so I barely get away with it... I was trying to hold back my smiling too much because I knew what she was tearing up for lol. We get on the plane we get to Seattle and hit up a few place to go see and switch hotels a couple times. we had planned on going to the space needle and that's where it hit me. That's where im gonna do it, is what I thought to myself. We get up there and we're both out of sorts a bit, from running around with a couple kids who have endless amounts of energy, We walked around for a little bit up there. I went to the bathroom and get the ring prepared for what I'm about to do. I get to them and I hand some random lady my phone and acted like I wanted a picture... I lean over to kiss Anita and she's looking at me like "what are you doing we're trying to take a picture." I get down on one knee and I'm shaking with excitement I could barely get the words out 'will you marry me' and she was so surprised as well as everyone else up there including the lady taking the picture, who had the great idea to turn my phone from camera to video lol.. Because I didn't say what I was gonna do. well that was my plan and I knew I was gonna do it no matter what. she said yes! and I'am so happy that I get to marry my bestfriend!
