part 6
a lot of
fun stuff happened over the next 3 years. i attended and graduated from
cosmetology school, branden graduated from plumbing school, he bought a house,
got his journeyman’s license, we took a few trips to arizona, and celebrated 3
years of being together in january 2011. then in march he asked me to marry
him.
before we
got engaged we talked about it--we knew we wanted to get married, we knew we
wanted it to be in the summer/early fall, and we knew we wanted to be engaged
longer than one or two months, so it was time to take the plunge! probably a
week or so after we discussed it we decided to go look at engagement rings so
he knew exactly what i wanted. we found my ring at a local jewelry store and i
picked it out (i realize that is super boring, but what can i say? i’m picky!).
i knew he was going to propose i just didn’t know when. at the time i was
working 2 jobs so i would go to his house when i got off from my morning job,
before i had to go to my second job.
one friday
after leaving work and heading over to his house i noticed a note taped to his
side door. it was the first clue of a scavenger hunt that took me all around
his house. there was a walk way of rose peddles and in each room they were
arranged to spell word like “will” “you” and “marry”. The final clue took me
down to the basement where branden was dressed up and on one knee, ring in hand.
