A Year Ago Today...

January 25, 2007 Dave asked me to marry him. We like to re-live that night purely for humor sake. In a nut shell, the highlights included: Dave running over a cat, Dave dropping the ring in the snow, and Dave falling on his face twice. We have recorded it in great detail, but wanted to share it with everyone through pictures (we excluded getting a picture of the dead cat!).

Dave took me Ottavio's in Provo. We enjoyed a lovely dinner where Dave hardly ate any of his food and he kept staring at the accordion player.

He wanted to show me a couple of places before we headed back to his house to relax for the night. On the way to the first place he ran over the cat. We drove around the block to go back and see if it was okay. But it had disappeared! Oops.

After going to the places he finally popped the question. He got down on one knee and opened the ring box...upside down. The ring fell into the snow.


We finally found the ring...I said yes. We got in the car to go see our parents and found the car stuck. Parked on ice, the car didn't want to go anywhere. I got in the driver's seat and Dave got out to push. He began pushing and...down he went. Not once but twice!

It was a wonderful night. I am can't imagine what my life would be like without him.
Life is beautiful.
