The Proposal...

On New Year's Eve both of our family's got together to watch the Virginia Tech game and to watch the ball drop.  During half time, we were all playing Catch Phrase.  Everyone in our families love that game, so we were all really getting into it.  It was Chris' turn to give the clue, and he said, "What does a guy say to a girl when he gives her a ring?"  Lindsey shouted out "Will you marry me?"  And he said "Well, will you?" and pulled out a ring.  She couldn't believe what was happening!  She first asked him if he was serious, and then she said yes!

She couldn't stop crying, laughing, and grinning all at the same time.  He said now he could finally relax and breathe, but now she couldn't breathe!  Then he brought out three roses, and each of them had a little gift tag on it.  The first rose said "To our past", the next rose said "To our present" and the final rose said "To our future". After Lindsey finally stopped crying, we all took pictures together.  It was so nice that both of our families were there to experience the moment with us and to take pictures throughout everything.  We can't explain how thrilled we were, and how excited we still are!
