Are you sure?

The day had finally arrived! Everything was ready for the special event to take place in the afternoon. The roses and ring had been bought and the chocolate covered strawberries were carefully placed in a red bag to be stored until later. As most of you can probably already tell by now this is the story of how I got engaged. Anyways, Nicole is a person that really likes nature. But since it was snowing and it was cold outside we couldn't go on a hike or anything like that. So we found this reception home near my house called Western Gardens and went to check it out. It was beautiful and the perfect place to propose. So then I bought some roses and chocolate covered strawberries and set up a tour at Western Gardens. Nicole, now my fiance, had no idea that this was coming by the way. She thought that it might be coming in a month or so but she was never expecting it to happen so soon. So I told her that we were going to this tour so that we could get some ideas for the future. It was a short 10 minute tour and then it was turn to ask her to marry me. So what I did was I had previously cut out some really ugly and weird rings of a magazine and I glued them to a lined sheet of paper. I only put 4 or 5 on one paper. After we had finished the tour we sat down together on this wooden bench and I told her that I had a question for her. Then I reached into my pocket, pulled out the lined paper, and I asked, "So what do you think of these rings Nicole?" I could tell that she didn't like them. I myself didn't like them and it really took some effort to act like I had really considered getting her these rings. So we talked about the rings and their styles for about five minutes or so and then came the final question. I said, "There is one more ring that I want you to see Nicole." Again I reached into my pocket and this time I pulled out a little blue box with her real ring and got down on one knee. I then asked, "What do you think of this ring Nicole?" She was shocked and there was a silence for about 5 seconds. She then said something that I will never ever forget. The first thing that she says to me is, "Kip, are you sure?" "Are you sure that you want to marry me?" Of all the things that I was expecting her to say that was the last thing that crossed my mind ha ha. I answered, "Yes Nicole, I am positive. Will you marry me?" Thankfully she replied, "Yes. Yeah! Yeah! Yes!" You all know what follows. Then there was lots of hugging and kissing and saying, "I love you!" It was such an amazing experience and the best day of my life! I hope that each of you get to have a similar experience one day because you won't find anything better any other way!
