ENGAGED

Of course he decided April Fools Day was the answer. We both have different details to this story that we like to share.  Here is my side:

We took a weekend trip to Salt Lake because my sister Amanda and her fiance had some conference tickets for us. We decided to go out to eat, Jose wanted us to go to his old restaurant in Ogden called Sonora Grill. The food was incredible and the service was amazing. I got sweet pork tacos and the guacamole was to die for. Mexican is by far my favorite, and this was a really nice place.


We had an amazing time... Matt was acting a little off and he told me he was just feeling sick. I started to worry about him since we were away for the weekend. Jose insisted that we get dessert so I got a mango sorbet and Matty got flan so we could try both. The waitress brought them over and I was looking at my phone when she placed my plate in front of me. Instead of ice cream there was a little brown box with a bow sitting on my plate. I am embarrassed to say it took me at least 10 second of staring at the box confused before realizing what was going on. I kept thinking "is this chocolate or something? where is my ice cream?"

When it hit me I had to calm myself down, I turned and look at Matty and I will never ever forget his face in that moment.  It was so sweet and humble. I could see how nervous and hopeful he was even though he already knew what my answer would be. I opened the box and it was empty, Jose yelled "APRIL FOOLS"-I did not care for that. But I looked over at my beautiful man and he pulled out the ring, in an actual ring box, got down on one knee and told me how much he loved me. When he asked me to marry him the whole restaurant cheered and the waitresses and managers came over one by one to look at the ring. There were many tears and not just from us. It couldn't have been more perfect.


He did a good job. As per my request, I've got 2 thin rose gold bands that will go on each side of this beauty. I just love my man, and not only because he got me the perfect ring. :)
