Shelly: Engaged!

So, Keaton and I got engaged on February 18th, 2012! Here is exactly how it went...

We had decided to celebrate Valentine's Day the weekend after, because we had both been working on the 14th. So, we planned to go to the temple on that Saturday after work! Keaton picked me up from my apartment and we drove to Salt Lake. We parked at the Conference Center and went to the temple to do baptisms for the dead. We had a great time, and I always love going to the temple with Keaton. I bought a brand new dress for dinner, so I got ready in the temple for our dinner. We went to The Roof restaurant in temple square, at the top of the Joseph Smith Memorial building. It was an amazing dinner with a fantastic view of the temple! I love it! Since it's a buffet, we both stuffed ourselves to the rim! He kept quizzing me all throughout dinner on important things that happened around temple square. And once we were done with dinner, we decided to walk around.

I guess he had multiple places picked out to propose, and I kept ruining them. The first was cobblestone, and since I was wearing heels, I couldn't really walk on it. So then we went to another spot, where I got really bad hiccups for about 5 minutes. Then we began walking towards the temple, and Keaton said a "that's what she said" joke, so he definitely couldn't propose right after that. We began walking back to the Conference Center, and he started walking in the opposite direction of where we parked. So, logically, I told him he was going the wrong way, and started to walk the other direction. He said my name, so I turned around, and he was getting down on one knee. I said "Are you kidding me??" I was really excited and couldn't believe it. He assured me that he wasn't kidding, and I asked "Are you serious?" a few more times, before he asked me to marry him. I said of course, and he kissed me! Never been so happy! I picked out my ring on the Monday after, and we bought it! Here's a picture of the ring!
