he did it! hes engaged... UPD w/pic :)

Original post by KarinAmanda

so i posted the other night that my oldest brother was proposing tonight ... he did it and SHE SAID YES (of course )

so heres the story (semi long)

2 weeks ago they were at her friends wedding and she caught the bo-k. Of course they had a few drinks, she was a little tipsy. She turned to my brother an in a semi-slur says 'i know that you aren't sure about this whole marriage thing, but I want you to know - I want to marry you, just a littttttlllleee bit ' majorly slurred.

Fastforward to today ... she was turning in her master's thesis, so he told her he has a surprise for her to celebrate. He told her he was taking her to dinner and that he had a small gift. Her master's is in Library and Information Sciences so he got her a lenox librarian figurine ... and they went off to dinner.

At dinner, after desert, he told her he had another surprise for her. He gave her the whole 'you are my world, I cant imagine life without you' and then said 'and i need you to know, I WANT to marry you, JUST A LOT' awww so cute and he slid the ring in box over to her. She said she was shaking and couldnt open the box. Just as shes trying to open the box, the waiter comes over with check in hand and my brother tells him - not now

They got the ring out and everything is great, now they're celebrating with her friends who came up to surprise her!

As she was on the phone will me, telling me the story, my sister and MOH was running out of the house to talk to her and walked through the screen door of a friend's house she was too excited to open the door before walking through I guess!

Anyway, they are ENGAGED and im so happy - another wedding in the upcoming months!
