My boyfriend of 7 years, finally decided to wife me up! Yes, FINALLY! I was waiting for this day and I was surprised. 

It was on Thanksgiving November 25th… I was thinking it would be just a normal dinner with the family when all of a sudden David’s mom decides to stop by. Many would think that I would have known that he was going to propose to me since his mother never comes to my house. But I actually had no clue whatsoever. My mom and his mom began to joke around about David being afraid of marriage and I looked over at David and he walked to a corner. I joked about how David was “hiding in the corner”. And next thing you know, he comes over to the dinner table with a black gift back. I didn’t know what to think… He then pulls out a bottle of tequila (which in my family, its a tradition to give a bottle of tequila to the father of the bride and ask him for my hand in marriage) I then began to say “You gotta be kidding me! This isn’t happening” I look at him as he is approaching my dad with the bottle and he politely asks him if he will allow him to take his daughters hand in marriage. My dad replies with a smile, and says yes. He walks over to me, while I’m bawling in tears of joy, and grabs my hand. I can feel him shaking. He pulls me over to him and proceeds to tell me that he loves me so much and that he would love to have me as his wife. He then asked me those magical words that I have been waiting for … “Would you marry me?” With no hesitation, I nodded my head and said yes. I hugged him and kissed him with every love and affection that I had. As we looked into each others eyes, we both knew that we were meant for each other. This is now the biginning of a new phase of our lives. I cannot wait to share the new moments with my soon to be husband. 

I love you David. Your future wifey, Evelyn <3
