It's official!! I popped the question while decorating the tree this evening! I've been planning this since last year when we put up the tree. I wanted to hand her some ornaments then while she's not paying attn. hand her the ring box instead. Well it didn't quite go down like that but it's just as good! This is her first Christmas living here so she was going through some ornaments she brought from her old home and I went and nelt down beside her and told her to check out this box and I'll look at hers, and I handed her the closed box. She at first just thought it was a just a normal piece of jewelery until she opened it and I asked, she started crying and said yes!! My family was here and my daughter Ashley was too, I wanted her kids to be here but it didn't work out. It was great! she didn't have a clue! I couldn't be happier and she feels the same!
I know it's not car related but I just had to share! Especially since I've wrote to quite a few of you and have met some of you as well. Thanks for reading! Now to copy and paste this elsewhere!
BIG CONGRATS man! I remember when I proposed, I had it all planned out in my head but it didn't go down like that at all! Its pretty nerve racking when it gets down to the wire!
This should make it a special christmas for you guys. Good luck!

Old farts like me always like to give advice, so here's mine; relationships and marriages are a lot like cars, they need maintenance and on occasion, repair. Never be afraid or unwilling to spend the time and/or money necessary to maintain and repair your marriage. Do so, and it should last you the rest of your lives!
Again, congrats to you and your bride to be!
Shiny Side Up!

Thanks guys!! She's been even more bubbley than she usually is since I proposed. Which is great! My second wife didn't show emotion about anything, so it's really nice to have someone that does.
Maybe the 4th wife will be bubbly also.LOL.LOL. Just kidding.I wish you both the best of everything,and a whole bunch of kids.
Thanks Vinn, Hahaha! It stops with the third no more please!!!! hahaha!! I'm 42 and she's 43 so no more kids, besides we have 4 between us ranging from 18 - 24, so that's enough.
Yep,that's enough.I'm 42 as well,and my chica is older than me.she Rawks !!! Have you set a date?
Not yet we're just enjoying the moment. We actually heven't even talked about a date yet, no hurry. She's living here with me so it already feels like we're married, we just need the paper to say we are.
Yep,the paper.....the deed to you.LOL.My wife and I are having our 16th anniversary in April.I wouldn't trade her.
16 years, that's awsome man! I'd love it if we can spend the rest of our live together. I've honestly never been this happy before, I've thought I was happy in the past but I wasn't truely happy like now. She has brought such a light into my life I never want that to go out. We've been together a year and 7 months and she means the world to me.
Very cool story. Congratulations.
Thanks, I wanted to do something different. Make it memorable.
Awesome, dude. Congratulations to you both.
congrats! did my proposal on christmas morning, 1992. worked like a charm.
I proposed in a canoe, before spending the night alone on a secluded island near my parent's farm. She was so excited that I had to remind her she hadn't said yes or no yet, once we got to s.
And they say us guys can't be romantic.
