Pocket Lint


Josh and I met in the summer of 2007, we seemed to instantly "click". We dated for about 2 months before we both knew that we wanted to spend the rest of eternity with each other. In September of 2007, we picked out a ring...but it wasn't official. Josh called my dad later that month and asked for his permission, Al kindly granted his wish. Knowing all this (and being a girl!) I was expecting a proposal every time we saw each other (which was about every 2 weeks since we lived 250 miles apart) but, the little stinker kept waiting. When I would come and visit, I would play "dress up" with my ring while Josh was at work...I was so anxious!! Well, FINALLY in the end of October, on the 25th Josh popped the question! He had come to Orem and wanted to take me to a nice dinner, so I made reservations for us at Sundance, in the Tree Room. It was a beautiful autumn night, the restaurant was so nice...but there were lots of loud tourists there. Josh, being the funny guy that he is was mocking the obnoxious patrons (which I was not happy about!). We were sitting there, enjoying each other when he asked me what I would like for a surprise before our dinner came out. I thoughtfully replied that I thought it would be great if he would stop mocking everyone else! Then, he reached in his pocket and said that he had some troublesome pocket lint...and he pulls out my ring!! He held my hand and said, "I guess this is the part where I ask you to marry me." He looked at me...I reply, "So, are you asking??" LOL! We laughed and he asked me formally and of course I accepted! It was magical!

  1. Oh, Josh and his pocket lint. I love it and welcome to the blog world. I hope to be entertained often. I need to do a new back ground. Was it too techy?
