Wedding Bells Part II

Surprise! Michael and I are engaged! After talking about it, looking at rings, etc. it has finally happened. He told me on Monday that he was going to make a special dinner on Tuesday and wouldn't give me any details. I bugged him and bugged him and he still wouldn't tell me anything, but I had a pretty good idea of what he was up to. I can count on one hand the number of times he's made a special dinner in the past two years. The only thing he would tell me is that I couldn't come home until 630 because that is when dinner would be done. Normally I have soccer on Tuesday which goes until 630 but it freezing cold and there was freezing rain on and off throughout the day so we cancelled practice. I think he went into a quick panic when I told him. I stayed a little late at work and then went to our new house to pick up my mail that they have been holding for me and got home about 620. Here is what was waiting for me:
Oh yes, that is all sushi, he knows the way to my heart. He went to one of my favorite places and got 140 pieces of sushi so that he could spell this out. I will admit that it took me a minute to figure out, looking at it from above it is pretty obvious, but from the side (it is a tall table) it was a little more difficult. I think I was stunned by all the sushi. I of course said yes, and then ate a lot of sushi! I was so full I couldn't eat the cheesecake for dessert. Oh, and the most important part, the ring. I don't have it yet, it is getting sized and should be done in about a week, hopefully sooner! I am so happy and so excited to start this new part of our life together, once we get moved into the new house the wedding planning begins!
