On Saturday night when Errick came home from work, I was in the kitchen cooking dinner. He screamed down the hallway, "Where are you?" "Umm...I'm in the kitchen" I responded back. He told me to go to the living room and keep my eyes forward. He went straight to the bedroom and closed the door. I just assumed he was wrapping my present up. He came back out with my present in hand.
He told me to open mine first so without complaining...I dug in! In the bag was a set of champagne glasses and a fancy bottle of Dom Perignon! I couldn't believe it. Three years together definitely deserves a nice bottle of champagne. I thought it was fabulous!
Now it was his turn to open his present. We are going on a cruise for Christmas this year, so I got Errick a waterproof digital camera. He loves to snorkel so I thought it would come in handy. He loved it...(duh)!
So we go back and forth as to when to drink the bottle of champagne. Should we wait until tomorrow or drink it tonight? Errick told me that he really wanted to drink it that night, so I obliged. I mean, who can argue with that? I headed for the new champagne glasses and began opening the box they were in. All of a sudden, the second one I pulled out was clinking a little bit. Is it broken? No, there was an engagement ring in the glass.
I was in complete shock and couldn't believe that the moment I had always waited for was happening! When I turned around to look at Errick he was down on his knee asking me to marry him! I managed to get a tearful yes out of my mouth!
We couldn't be happier to start planning the rest of our lives together...
