An Engagement Story...

On Valentine's Day, I got engaged!!! It was so amazing. Not only was it Valentine's day, it was our 1 year anniversary.  Our Valentine's started on the 13th. We exchanged gifts.  When we got up on Valentine's morning (Feb. 14, 2013) Andrew made me egg muffins. Then I was off to work for the day. 



When I got home, he had a huge cupcake balloon that says love you. And an anniversary and Valentine's card on the bed. We then got ready to go out for the evening. He took me into San Fransisco to the Cupid's Allstar Comedy show. It was really funny. We had diner there. We sat right at the foot of the stage.

So we got out of there about 10ish.. and drove over the Golden Gate. We stopped at Vista Point. It's so pretty there. Overlooks the city and bay, with the bridge right there. We had never been there at night, and seen the city lights. 






So, we walk around a bit, take some pics. And just kind of hanging out. It is super dark. 





Andrew says to me, I need to ask you a question. I turned to look at him. He looked nervous. I got a little nervous. He says Julie Ann Mallett will you marry me. I said are you joking??? lol. He says no I am not joking and gets down on his knee and pulls out a box from his coat jacket. I said  Are you serious? He said yes. Then I said yes. He got up and kissed and hugged me. Then put the ring on my finger. 




We just kept kissing. He said can you even see the right. I said not really. So I had to pull my cell phone out to see the ring. I LOVED it! He could not have picked out a more perfect ring! So we stayed there a little longer, and it was like two giddy teenagers. Just smiling, and hugging and kissing. 


We left and went home. When we were laying in bed that night, Andrew says I know you really love me. I thought how silly, he should always know that. I said ok, why. He says, you said yes even before you saw the ring. Lol.  Of course I did! The ring is just an added bonus. 






It's so much more special, because he KNOWS me so well. It's white gold, and pink. It's not traditional. Which makes me love it 10x more. It's better than I could ever ask for! Not that I would ask. Lol.  So we are thinking May 10th 2014 or around there. We haven't started any planning yet..
