**** I just replied to the newest 'proposal' thread ... ***
but it didn't show up and now I can't find it.
Anyway, here is my post in case you want to hear a romantic story lol
It was our 6 year anniversary on the 14th of December. So, it was decided that we would celebrate on Saturday the 17th. Mike made dinner reservations at 10:00 and told me that he had something planned before dinner. He picked me up at 6:15 and told be we were going to the Vanderbilt Museum to see a show at the planetarium. We have been there before and I was excited because the planetarium is amazing. We got there and had the whole place to ourselves. Little did I know, he had rented it out.
So, there we were - sitting in the planetarium all by ourselves. The sky started to turn dark (as if the sun was setting) and little by little each star was appearing. It was absolutely gorgeous. I felt as if we were lying outside starring up at the sky. Then, 'our' song came on, Only Time from Enya and I thought how adorable. Mike had brought in a CD that he made of 3 songs but at the time I didn't even realize it. I just thought that it was a coincidence.
Then the song, You and Me, by LIFEHOUSE came on and ...
All of a sudden I saw words starting to appear in the stars and when I saw my name I was shocked, it read, 'Justine, to me you are perfect. I love you so much and I want to spend the rest of my life with you.' I started to cry of course and still thought, for a second, that that was it. Then, I looked up again and it said 'Will you marry me?' I have never been so surprised with anything in my entire life. Obviously, I said YES!
We called all of our friends and family to share the news. Most of them knew because Mike had been planning this for a year! We made a few special stops, our friends are truly wonderful! Lastly, we went to dinner at Nick D'Angelos. When we got to our table there was a large white candle on it and roses waiting for me. 3 pink and 3 red (one for each year we have been together) and a card. The whole night is something I will never forget.
