As many of you know Chris & I joke around ALOT! Well, one thing he did for a long time was ask me to Marry him & I would always respond with “Yeah, when you mean it”. So, let me just tell you how Chrismas Eve of 2020 went.... I had worked 12 hours that day (8am-8pm) & after work I wanted to ride around in the snow for a bit. Chris of course was more than willing. Well, after a long day we finally went in for the night. After spending some much needed quality time together (it was Christmas Eve night/Christmas Day at this point) we were finally laying down for the night when he asked me to Marry him. Again, nothing unusual because after all he’s asked me a million times right!? So I go on with my usual “Yeah, when you mean it”. He reaches into his pillow case & pulls out a box. Me being me cause he jokes WAY TO MUCH, threatens to punch him because I am thinking he is about to hand me an empty box. He’s giggling, which I of course didn’t think he’s being very funny. But to my shock & amazment there was actually a ring! I was stunned! I did not even know how to react cause he has joked around so much. I of course said YES! I wish I could say I was over ecstatic but I think I was more in shock than anything. It hadn’t really set in until about 8am Christmas Day that WE WE’RE ENGAGED! Now, we are planning our wedding & looking forward to spending the rest of our lives together. We are elated to get to share this special moment with all of you by our sides in support of Mr. & Mrs. Burton! FINALLY!
