The way he popped the question!

Nate and I had been dating three years to the day the night he proposed to me. It was an ordinary day, I went to work at Lavender Bridal. I knew I could look forward to dinner out maybe even flowers for our anniversary. Yay! Then while at work Nate sent me flowers 3 white roses! Cute I was so thrilled with that I got on the phone called and thanked him right away! During the course of the afternoon he called me to check in see how my day way going, (not typical)I kind of thought maybe tonight way the night but I wasn't counting on it! We decided we were going to 91 for dinner. My friend Marcie and I were leaving work and she said Laurel if you get a ring you call me! "Yea I will" I said. When I got home I was surprised to see Nate had three dozen roses in a vase on our dining room table NATE!! I said what is this you got me flowers again!! I was thrilled! On my typical routine when getting ready to go out Nate’s getting ready I’m picking out his clothes, reminding him to shave the usual. I’m wearing what I wore to work which was a cute dress I had bought the weekend before at Wal-Mart, it was comfortable and totally appropriate for dinner out! I go out to get the mail, and Nate says are you really going to wear that, and I’m half throwing a fit Yes Nate I’m comfortable it's fine your making me self conscious! He says well I’ve got something for you to wear, and I was like oh geez what could he have gotten me? Nervous I reply Oh yea, and He was like you have to promise me something, (me going through our mail) What? Nate says Laurel, You have to promise me you'll wear it every day for the rest of your life! I immediately covered my face with mail and started crying; he took a knee and put my beautiful ring on my finger!
Tear! We then spent the rest of the night showing off our happiness with great friends and family!

Love
Laurel
