From the desk of the future Mrs. Johnson...
We're engaged! Ross proposed on Monday night and it couldn't have been more perfect.
We were staying in Glenwood for the night as he had a job about 2 hours away (5 hours from home), so we stayed at the Hotel Denver for the night. Well, he didn't get back to the hotel until about 1130 pm so I was hanging out with Shanti on the shore of the Colorado drinking beer and just enjoying the mini-break.
As the night wore on, I considered walking over to the Hotel Colorado to kill some time. The Hotel Colorado is this BEAUTIFUL hotel in the middle of Glenwood Springs. It's big and luxurious and victorian and it's where I had all of my proms and homecomings and my mom used to take me there when I was little for shirley temples.
It's also where I always dreamed of getting married and Ross knows that this little detail is just part of the package.
So anyway, I thought about walking over there because it was a beautiful night and the courtyard is just gorgeous, but decided to just wait for Ross. I'm glad I waited.
Ross got back and "agreed" to walk over there with me, even though it was so late.
So we walk over the bridge and up the steps to the courtyard and I see this little table set up that's covered with white votives and 2 vases of white roses. Like an idiot, I say, "Look! It looks left over from a wedding!" to which Ross just said, "no" and led me over to the table where he proposed!!! i can't believe he actually pulled it off! It was just after midnight and we were the only ones around (except for the event coordinator who helped him plan it).
I couldn't dream it up if I tried.
