She said "YES!!"

Today's Show Us Your Life topic is all about proposals! So welcome all visitors!

Brandon proposed on September 25, 2007. We had been dating two years. He planned a surprise proposal. Every Tuesday night is when Chi Alpha meets for service - at 7:00. Chi Alpha is an Assemblies of God organization for college students. Brandon and I arrived early to be greeters. This particular night, I noticed that everyone was avoiding me, and I couldn't figure out why! Little did I know, everyone knew what was to come. They were afraid to talk to me because they didn't want to spoil the surprise.... When service started, a staff member came to the front and said that tonight was going to be a little different and that we were going to play a game. I did not want to go on stage... but low and behold, I was the last person to be called up in front of about 75 people. The game was passing around an object to see if anyone could guess what it was. I guessed the object (a pencil case) correctly and was very excited to see what my prize was. As I took off my blindfold, Brandon was in front of me on one knee with a huge rock in his hand! He proposed and of course I said yes! We got married May 31, 2008.

Here are some of our engagement photos:






I was so very pleased with them. We had an amazing photographer! Bran and I just celebrated our second anniversary. I look forward to spending many, many more with him!
