My fiance Luke proposed to me on Thanksiving. It was such a cute proposal, and very sweet! A few weeks before he proposed, his sister called me up to tell me that Luke asked her and my best friend to help him pick out my engagement ring. I was SO darn excited, and constantly waiting for him to propose. LOL.
I was rushing around our apartment trying to finish making mashed potatoes to bring to my parents house, while trying to get dressed and ready. It was a hectic morning to say the least and the last thing on my mind was Luke proposing. While I was putting tin foil over the mashed potatoes I realized I wasn't wearing any earrings and told Luke to go get me a pair from my jewelry box. A few seconds later he yelled "Ally come here, there's something in your jewelry box". I trudged over to our bedroom all pissed off, mumbling how getting a pair of earrings isn't that difficult. I looked at Luke, still pissed off and not even thinking about the proposal. All of a sudden I looked down in my jewelry box and saw this beautiful diamond engagement ring.
I just stood there with my mouth wide open, knowing that I would burst out in tears at any moment. He took my hand in his, got down on one knee and asked me to marry him! Through my tears I managed to say yes. I was so excited to go to our families and tell everyone. Turns out everyone basically knew he was going to propose!
I later found out that he had been carrying the ring around and was waiting for the right moment to ask me. It was such a beautiful moment.
