Well, Disney World is my favorite place. I had dreamed of going there for as long as I could remember when he took me in Jan 2003 as a Christmas present. In Jan 2004 we went back. We'd already been ring shoppping, so there was some suspicion, but I really wasn't sure if he was going to propose or not. He almost had me convinced that he wasn't!
On the 1st or 2nd day we were there I was making a charm bracelet in the hotel gift shop and I came across a little charm that was a little mickey head engagement ring! I teased him and said 'well, if we were ENGAGED, I could get this.' FH laughed and said 'someday.'
Another day we were at World Showcase and we were at the Germany Pavillion where they have a lot of Snow White stuff (I love Snow White). There were two pins I liked, one was SW with a rose and the other was SW and Prince Charming. he asked which one I wanted, and I said 'surprise me' and went inside to look at hummels. He came into the store and gave me the pin with SW and the rose.
A few nights later, he kept teasing me with 'I have something for you, I have something for you.' and I wasn't sure what, but I hoped.
On Saturday we were on line for the Haunted Mansion set at MGM and waiting quite a while when he truend to me and said, 'Jennifer, I love you. I need you. I want to spend the rest of my life with you, so I want you to have this.' and he gives me the pin with SW and Prince Charming. I laughed and told him he was really mean. He thought he was pretty amusing!
Later on that night (our last night there) we headed for the Magic Kingdom to watch Spectromagic (light parade) and Wishes (Fireworks). He was pretty obsessed with getting there, which was odd considering we'd seen them both multiple times. So anyway we got to MK just as the parade was starting and we stood right by the entrance watching the parade. I was trying to get a good spot and trying to take pictures. I got annoyed with FH for tugging at my right wrist (the one with the charm bracelet on it). He stopped.
After the parade was over where we were, we walked up mainstreet toward the castle along with the back of the parade, singing along 'On this magic night a million stars will play beside us...'
We got to the top of Main Street and hunkered down for a 30 minute wait until the fireworks. It was pretty cold (about 40 degrees, I think). He was sayng how happy he was to be there with me, and said that the hearts in the fireworks would be for us tonight. I thought it was cheesy, but sweet. About 10 minutes before the parade FH said we should get someone to take our picture in front of the castle. He kind of took a long time in choosing someone (and spoke to the guy about 2 seconds too long) but finally he took me to a clear spot in front of the castle to take the picture. He said 'I love you', leaned over and kissed me and as I protested 'What are you doing!!? This guy is trying to take a picture!?' He dropped to one knee and said 'Jennifer, WIll you marry me?'
And then we watched the fireworks together! And we have pictures of the proposal!!!
Also, the bit about him grabbing at my bracelet was that he was trying to put on the little engagement ring charm!
SO perfect!!!
