Well I guess its about time I start my journal:
How we met:
James and I met when I was 18 years old. I went into his work because I was having problems with the radio in my car. He was the lucky man who got to work on my car. I thought he was really cute so we exchanged phone numbers. A few nights later we went out to dinner. After dinner I ended up having him take me home. We didn't talk again for about a year, as I had just come out of a bad relationship and I decided I wasn't ready to date.
Well about a year later my car broke down, so I decided to call him and see if he could give me a ride. He ended up being about a mile away from where I was, so he came and picked me up. We went out to lunch at In 'N' Out. After lunch he took me home and then he left. A week later I moved to San Diego. When I settled at my dads house I could't stop thinking about him. So I decided to call him that evening. We talked on the phone for about an hour, and decided he was going to come visit me in San Diego.
On September 1, 2001 he came to San Diego, picked me up and drove back to Anaheim. We spent the night in a hotel for the night, then the next morning we got up and went to Disneyland for our first real date as boyfriend and girlfriend.
We talked on the phone everynight after getting off work for hours on end. In November, about a week before Thanksgiving, I moved back home to my grandma's house. We would go out on dates almost every night, wether we went out to dinner, or a movie, or he just came over to my house to watch tv and cook dinner with me.
October 2004, James bought a house and I moved in with him, and the rest is history. LOL!
How he proposed:
Well the proposal didn't quite go as planned. His plan was to propose to me on Valentines day 2009. He had reservations to take me out on a sunset cruise and have romantic music. He was going to propose just as the sun went down. Unfourtunatley, on February 9, 2009, my grandmother unexpectedly passed away. So instead of proposing on valentines day he decided he would wait a few months, but he was so excited about wanting to spend the rest of his life with me, he told me what his plans were and he asked me if I still wanted to go but that he was going to hold off on the proposal. I told him I didn't feel like going anymore and that I wouldn't mind going to look at rings with him instead. So we went to just LOOK at rings, and I fell in LOVE with my ring. So he decided to put a deposit on my ring, from there it was going to be a surprise.
On fathers day he finally decided to propose. He asked my parents and then gave me my ring.
