Engagement!

Josh proposed to me almost a year ago but he didn't have a ring.
So, he proposed to me again today and here's how it happened:

Josh and I have been working for a few days on a letterbox so we can plant one of our own. Well, last night we finally finished it and we decided to go plant it this morning at Ghost Town.
Well, when we got there and decided on the spot to plant it, Josh said "Here, you write the date on the card because you have prettier handwriting."
So, I opened to box and in it is a stamp that says "Turn" on it with and arrow. I turned it over and the stamp said "Will you marry me?" and I turned around and Josh was standing there with the ring in his hands.
I...of course...said YES!!!!!! And he put the ring on my finger. I didn't want to let go of him. I was hugging him so tight....I just didn't want to let go!
I never want to let go of him! He's too precious!
I just wanted to share.
So, to the first person that finds our Ghost Town letterbox...just so you know...that box means a lot to us because it's our first plant and it's how he proposed to me!
What a lovely day I had today!

Aww, that's so sweet - congratulations to the both of you!!!

Now, when you put your wedding invite in a letterbox, make sure the clues aren't too hard, so we all find it in time to make it to the wedding on time ;-))

Should we expect a letterbox at the wedding? Maybe a PLB after for those of us too far to stop in that day!??

Ahh, he's been in trouble ever since I found out that Knitica's boxing fiancee Fireball MADE her engagement ring. It's not so much that he's FIRED...we're just downsizing the relationship....by 1 employee!

Oh, wait...he's reminding me of our best date now...(sigh). I could live on that one weekend in Toronto for the rest of our lives! ;-)

Congratulations!!! How neat! :)

*sigh*

My hubby told me to design my engagement ring, and I was so excited about it that when it came in, I insisted on wearing it right then and there! I never let him do the grandiose proposal....oh well!

Maybe for our 10th, he'll re-propose!!! Only two more years to go!!!! ;)
