After seven years of being together, **TonyF** proposed tonight! We’re engaged!! 😃

We’ve texted his family a picture of us and the ring. We went over to my mom’s and told her and my brother in person.

I’M SO HAPPY! Ow my face hurts from smiling so much and it still feels warm because my face has been red for about half an hour. Totally worth it!!

I think that he was just making sure the car drives as well as advertised. 😉

Oh boy, the planning is going to be fun! We already have an idea of a nice, intimate wedding with close friends and family. Just thinking about it makes my heart flutter!

Depends on how difficult I feel like being to him. 😉

Thank you everyone for the well wishes! It’s the best Christmas EVER! I feel like my heart is going to explode from all the excitement and fuzzy feelings! Ahhh and we’re going over to his parent’s house for lunch so I’m going to start turning red and I might cry from all the happiness that his parents are going to spread around! Isn’t life just wonderful?

Congratulations. A small, intimate wedding sounds perfect. Ours was small, and I think it could have been even smaller.

Congratulations!

One word of warning. I’m also trying to plan a small, intimate wedding. You’d be amazed how easy it is for complications to sneak in, especially when it’s well-meaning people you love trying to sneak them in!

May you have many joy-filled years together, and may you be to each other, as the service goes, “a strength in need, a counselor in perplexity, a comfort in sorrow, and a companion in joy.”

I don’t believe it. So how’d he get the ring on with you both using [Nunchuk Controllers](http://images.p-nintendo.com/hardware/wii/e32006/Wii_nunchuk2.jpg) anyway…? :dubious: 😃  
Just kidding! Congrats. PS- Did you get to put your initials up as ‘High Score’? 😃
