Fact: Out of the Blueberry....engagement




Yes, we had spoken about how we would love to marry eachother... actually, we realized we would probably get married within 6 months of dating! But, the time period of that...in my head... was probably 5 years from now!
The day was like any other. I was teaching Saturday School... it was raining (rain seems to be our "signature") and I was dressed in jogging pants and a sweater...
So, we were supposed to go to Ikea. I come in and he puts his wallet in his pocket. "Where are we heading" I asked... "Not sure yet...lets watch some TV"
His mom was acting odd. We had a fast conversation about headaches and sniffles... and she left. I thought "What did i do" So, Vin comes out of the kitchen and says "I got you something!" I was excited to see a snapple (MY FAVORITE) bottle... "Out of the Blue berry"
I open the bottle and of course, look at the cap to read my fact.
"Real Fact # 111
Will you marry me"
(I am actually crying re-writing this)
At first I thoughtto myself "Thats not nice someone may think that their proposing!"
But I look up and theres my Vincent, on one knee, "Jen, Youre hte love of my life will you marry me?"
its a bit blurry from there but I ended up sitting on top of the couch going "No, what?No? What is this? Is this a joke?This isnt funny! What?"
Then I finally said yes! It was just, the most amazing proposal and I dont think I could have thought of a better proposal! It is soo original and so creative *Just like him*
Anyway... later that day after telling everyone... we went to IHOP (Yes IHOP) Because we celebrate everything with BREAKFAST! lol.
