We're so excited to celebrate with you!

We met when we had some classes together back in high school. We also would have lunch periods together and ate with the same group of people. We grew fond of each other over the time (which took about a year or so). We were prom dates senior year. He went to church with me a couple times (before we were engaged) and that was when I knew that he was the one. I was so happy God put us together.

He picked me up and told me we were going to lunch. Before going to lunch, he said he had to go meet up with a friend at a local park (and one of my favorite ones, it has an observation tower). When we got to the park, he "made a phone call" to see if his friend was there. He told me we would climb the tower while we waited for his friend. We were close to the top (there were people at the very top platform) and I was looking out onto the town. He wrapped his arms around me and had the ring in his hand. I turned around and he dropped onto his knee and asked me to marry him. Well, you know what my response was! Sidenote: obviously we were not meeting a friend of his.
