I pretended to drop something as we were going out to dinner, and when she stopped and turned around I was on one knee holding out the ring.

Trust me - you do NOT want to hear me sing. You will cry. Heck, I think it was all my wife could do to run off while I was singing it to her!

Well we had already got the ring so she new it was coming....so I knew I had to do something special so we went to Disneyland(we lived in cali at the time) and she knew that at some point I would do it when were down there but it she started to get worried because it was the last day and all we had left was breakfast. Well we went to goofys kitchen....

back story time.....weeks before we went I tried to contact some one Disneyland or Goofys Kitchen I was on the phone at work for two days talking to every person in the park and every time I got a new person I had to tell them what I wanted all over again and every time I got o that is so cool let me get you so and so but never got to any one that could help.

...So we get something to eat and I finish my plate and then I tell her I am going to get some more so I go up to the front tell the person up front what I want to do and of course ooooo thats so cool let me get the manager so I am waiting and waiting he comes out and I tell him I would like it if Goofy could bring the ring out on a tray or something and he says I will see what I can do. So I have to run back through the line and grab some food because its been like 15 minutes and it doesn't take that long to get food. I get back to the table and a few minutes latter all the characters start gathering off in the distance just about that time a kid down a few tables starts getting happy birthday song to him and Im like shoot they are going over there...I feel real bad for the kid because they walked right by his table to ours...The manager walks up with them all and goofy has a plate with a cover on it and the manager tells Lisa he that goofy has a special dessert for her and goofy lifts off the cover and the manager had taken a napkin twisted it just right and placed the ring on it. I got down on one knee and proposed and she cried and said yes and everyone cheered.

And for our Honeymoon we went to Disney World And thats another GREAT STORY

At Clobberthon 2005 I paused between Natrual Lites to point out the timeboards to my then fiance.. the timeboards said "W1LL U M4RR1 M3 SI5?". I'd never seen her eye light up like that before and the whole world could tell by her 3 tooth smile she was excited.
