Andy and I traveled to Seattle for my cousins wedding, which was absolutely beautiful. Afterwards we were talking about the wedding and how wonderful it was and he said that he wanted me to experience the same thing that he saw there which was love and family and fun. I started to feel my heart beating faster and faster as he spoke "will you marry me?" I actually asked him if he really asked that and then without and answer said an enthusiastic YES! He told me he wanted to ask me for some time but wanted to wait for the right moment, and this spontaneous one was it! He didn't have a ring yet so he drew me a ring in Sharpie Marker.
Before we told anyone Andy said he wanted to do something. He asked my Dad if he could see his guns. Then, both with guns in hand, Andy asked my Dad for his permission to marry me. To which my Dad said yes and that he better treat me well or he'll be coming after him, all this with a gun in his hand. This all happened on 4/29/12.
After getting back in Portland we went ring shopping. Andy picked out the most perfect ring ever. It's white gold with tiny little diamonds on the band and around the opal stone. I love it, but more importantly, I love him!
