THE PROPOSAL of the YEAR


I think April 15th will be a day Josh and I will Always remember!!:) Josh began with the day before asking me if i wanted to go up on the moutains on a four-wheeler ride, i went over to his house at about 11 am and he told me he and his dad had to do some errands sooooo, i was a little annoyed because he told me to come over and then when i got there was off to do some errands and told me i should just go do some errands, but at that point i had already finished my errands and was ready to go. so i just drove around richfield and talked with some friends.... sooo after he and his dad were done doing "errands" josh and i went on the moutains for a four-wheeler ride. when we got to the top of this moutain josh and i just sat down and taled....then i thought ok maybe he is going to propose to me...well he just got up and began throwing rocks off the edge of the moutain.....i was thinking to my self ok... i guess not, i guess i am just getting to anxious. soooo then it was the next day.. april 15th and he asked me to go on the moutains again since we are going out to kansas city for the summer he wanted to get on the mountains before we left. so i said ok lets go.... so we started on our drive to his cabin that he wanted to take me to. We began driving and every step of the way he was saying oh look over there for the deer. sooooooo i looked and looked... no deer. we got to the cabin that had been broken into, and saw a camping trailer next to the little cabin. Josh said " Oh it looks like my uncle Jeff must be up here... lets go look in the trailer." So we went inside the trailer and inside was a beautiful tabel set for two, i said to him oh we better leave before they get here, looks like he has this set up for him and his wife.....Josh looked at me and said just come in here babe.... i set this up for me and you. I looked at him with great suprise. we began eating the steaks that josh had prepared for us, josh just wasnt eating like he usually does. he was being extremely quiet. i looked at him and asked him what was wrong... he said he wasnt feeling really well, so we just kept eating then when we finished i asked him if he wanted to play the guitar and sing. he went out to the truck to go get it and came running back into the camping trailer and with a frantic voice said, i locked the keys in the truck...... i began to laugh, he looked at me and said "you know i am not joking right?? i am serious i really locked the keys in the truck." i said "ya i know your being serious i just dont see why you are freaking out soooo bad." so then he began to look around inside the trailer and was just saying O i cant believe this. so then he pulls out his spotting scope, and says hey do you see that sign over there??? i just replied by saying... O its prob just a 'forsale' sign. Josh said well why dont you look to see if you can see the sign, while i look around the trailer. i looked in the spotting scope for the sign, i finally found it....it read: JESSICA WILL YOU MARRY ME LOVE JOSH
I turned around from the window to see Josh down on one knee with a cup in his hand, he crumpled up the cup and said..." O, the ring is in the truck. (remember the keys are in the truck that is locked.) i just began laughing as tears are rolling down my cheeck. i gave him a big hug as he said i promise i had something else planned but i cant get anything out of the truck. so then he said "so will you marry me forever??" i said " Forever?" josh then said "foever and eternity?" i gave him a big kiss and he said soooo.... is that a yes?? I said " YES OF COURSE ITS A YES!!":)

we then went out to the truck and tried to get a hanger to un-lock it, but had no luck after 3 hours. so then we decided to hike up to the sign, we took the sign down and carried down the moutain to the trailer. By that time it was freezing cold. we huddled up next to the heater and covered our selves in blankets. we then said a prayer that josh's dad Tooter, (who helped josh get everything prepared for to cute proposal) would come up to the cabin with a spare key. it was about 3 hours later, there were some headlights coming towards the camping trailer, it was tooter. josh and told tooter, if we werent home before 8 he had better come looking for us. there Tooter was, with a spare key and there to help us out of there. josh then went to the truck and got the ring and brought it into the trailer, it was such a beautiful ring.

and that is the most memmorable proposal ever :) I loved it!! That will be a day we will always remember!!
