We were introduced by a mutual friend when we were fifteen.  We dated for a couple years in high school and then parted ways.  We reconnected when I was working towards my bachelor's degree and he was in the service a few years later.  We kept in touch and began dating again in May 2007.  He proposed in May 2008, and we are getting married on August 14, 2009.

As part of my birthday present, he took me to Niagara Falls for the weekend.  (I had never been there)  The weekend ended up being beautiful.  We did all the touristy things, all day on Saturday.  He kept saying "what ever you want to do, we'll do it"  which I thought was weird, but shrugged off and just enjoyed the day.  We had dinner that night at the Skylon Tower, which is a rotating restaurant 700ft above the falls.  After we ordered desert, he asked the server to take our picture.  He got up and came to my side of the table (I thought for the picture) and he proceeded to drop down on one knee and propose.  I was floored.  I never imagined that I would get such a made-for-the-movies proposal!!
