If you followed my other thread in Courting Couples you know that I recently got the OK from her dad after a 2 hour long discussion. On Friday, we are both going up to our old college where we met, to go to what they call the "Senior Meeting". It's with the Christian club we were a big part of and at the meeting they send off all the graduating seniors. It's held at a church and everyone is supposed to get dressed up.

I am in the processing of making a PowerPoint presentation of pictures from the last 3 years that we've been dating, I have taken LOADS of pictures during that time, and it will be played to a Clay Aiken song(her FAVORITE singer). The lights will be dimmed and I'll sneak on stage, so when it's finished, I'll be on stage and call her up to me, and then I'll propose.

She's not suspecting anything at all and has no idea I'm planning on doing this. She still thinks I have to talk to her dad to ask for permission. But little does she know... :D

I can't wait till Friday!! :clap:

Well, I am now engaged!!!111!!!! :clap:

It couldn't have gone any better than it did last night. All of our good friends were there that I started college with before transferring schools, so it made it extra special that we were able to share this great moment with everyone. She was totally surprised and had no idea it was coming. After the slide show ended, I took up to the stage and proposed amidst lots of cheering and clapping from our friends. :D

She proceeded to cry for about half an hour afterwards and kept saying, "I can't believe it!" It was a memorable and great night for us. AND to top it off, unbeknownst to me, someone videotaped the whole thing and handed me a copy of it on VHS within 20 minutes of it happening! :thumbsup:

She was ecstatic of course and we're both on cloud 9. Praise God! :amen:
