I just wanted to start a classy and respectful thread for everyone to show off the love of their lives. Please feel free to post up pics/videos/stories of you and your better half's engagement or marriage story!

I am pleased to say and share with the WAL crew, that as of Saturday, I am one step closer to joining the happily married gentlemen.

From Kim's Facebook post(She's better at explaining things that I am anyway): Chris had the cutest engagement plan ever, he gave me a key as we entered the OC fair (this is where we had our very first date) and told me that someone gave it to him at the entrance and there was a box we had to look for like a scavenger hunt. We would then have to try our key and see if we won a big prize. Later on, right before we were about to leave, he went to get us funnel cakes, but didn't come back for 10minutes. He called me and said that he found one of his Jeep friends and to come to him so I could say hi and meet them. When I got in front of the Ferris wheel, where he and his friend was supposed to be, there it was...a BOX that says try your key for a chance to win. I opened the huge box and thought I won some grand prize, and turns out I won something even bigger! It was him inside the box on his knees with a ring. Of course, I said YES! :)

Oh, there's the box that we were supposed to be looking for!

One of the OC fair workers was nice enough to help and make it look official

She then called me saying "where are you? I found the box!" and I reply "oh Im about 2 more rides down, go ahead without me, it's not like we will win or anything!"

Congrats on the 15 MTG. :clap2: I will also say to ignore "some" that post otherwise. Been married for 13 and with my wife for nearly 20 total. Like all aspects of life, marriage takes hard work and teamwork. But the rewards can be infinite!!
