Yesterday Colin and I went skiing.... xcountry up at Cypress and yes it was bad snow, brown, slushie and patches of grass poking through, and since I am already a terrible skiier, it was worse. My skis were sticking and I had to penguin walk up most of the hills ... although I would have had to do that even if it were perfect conditions.....
Anyways, I was feeling a bit sick, and wasn't even sure if I would make it to the top... Colin was saying "We have to get the top, I brought my camera so we could take pictures, it's the last day Cypress is open." I was thinking: "It's foggy, and we NEVER ski together..." (He always just goes off and does his own thing, I'm far too slow for him, I'd rather suffer by myself than have someone witness how bad I am on skis!) But he kept on waiting for me (I guess to make sure I wouldn't just bail).
Then at the top, which isn't much of a top, just a small clearing where the path ends, he got down pretending to get out the camera but he pulled out a small silver bell-shaped box.... and I said YES! Of course! Was there ever any doubt? I was totally surprised.
So all day today I have been just kinda day-dreaming, and every now and then I forget, then I remember and I get all happy all over again!
Meeting Colin has really changed my life, obviously for the better, he makes so happy, and I hope I do the same for him. It's crazy how much easier an relationship is when you find your soulmate. I know that sounds so cheesy, but he is truly my dreamboat! I am crazy about him, and I have been since we met, but what's great is that I am still the same amount of crazy for him... and probably more every day.
Now to plan a wedding.. a very small almost non-wedding wedding....
....And of course what girl's proposal tale wouldn't include a picture of the ring.....
