On this day in 2001, Travis took me out to dinner to Red Lobster. He had been very busy with school and wanted to do something fun with me. We had a very yummy dinner and started to head home, or so I thought. He ended up taking me up to the temple. We walked around once and about froze our butts off. Travis started back to the car. I was cold but I didn't want to go so soon. We weren't leaving. He popped open the trunk and there was a big box wrapped in comic strip paper (total guy wrapping;) He said he had gotten me an I love you present. We found a quiet place to open it and there were a ton of tickets in it. We had gone to the Luxor a few weeks before to play some games and he got me a plastic ring with ten tickets that we had won. We joked that it was my engagement ring. So then Travis asked if I wanted to trade my tickets for this ring and he pulled out a ring box from his pocket. He got on his knee and said he wanted me to be his wife. I was more than happy to be his wife. The next couple of months were a whirlwind of planning and preparing to be sealed for eternity. I'm so glad that I said yes and so thankful that I have such a wonderful hubby. It's been seven years and he is still the man of my dreams. There is no seven year itch here. He's stuck with me forever;) So March 10 will always be special to me because it was the start of a wonderful, new journey in our lives.
P.S. I still have my plastic ring;)
