New Candle Pass - 16 July 2008
 

Since we have a few newbies, this is how is works: I've lit the Candle, and will post part of a song traditionally used for Candle Passes. The next sister to read it will copy the candle (by quoting my post, and erasing everything that isn't between the ) and "sing" either a continuation of the song, or another one used for Candle Passes.

The Lucky Sister for Whom we're passing the candle will "blow it out" at the appropriate time (read: When she feels she's kept us waiting long enough!). So, here we go:



When you love an Alpha Delta,
You're a very special boy.
When you love an Alpha Delta,
Your heart is full of joy!

She's the dearest girl, sincerest girl
Of All girls under the sun!
When you love an Alpha Delta
Your life has just begun!


(next.....!)

Um... I'm singing...... really.
Just too tired.
Yeah for candle passes though!

Little ADPi like a gem you are
I believe you must have been a star
When your heart is bound
sadness there is none
Shinning bright as diamonds
ADPi we're one

It only takes a spark, to get a friendship growing
And soon all those around, will warm up to its glowing
that's how it is with ADPi, once you've expeirenced it
you'll want to sing, it's fresh like spring
you'll want to pass it on

ADPi will always love you
Though you're his sweetheart now
Congratulations, and all best wishes,
And may the rest of your dreams come true....

When you love an Alpha Delta,
You're a very special boy.
When you love an Alpha Delta,
Your heart is full of joy!

She's the dearest girl, sincerest girl
Of All girls under the sun!
When you love an Alpha Delta
Your life has just begun!

Round Two!
 

Little ADPi, like a gem you are
I believe you must have been a star.
When your heart is bound
Sadness, there is none.
Shining bright, ADPi,
We're one.

Whoosh!!!!!
 

WHOOOSH!!!!!!!!!

It's ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can hardly contain my excitement so I had to blow out the candle!!!!

Here is the story of how my FI proposed.

We had discussed getting engaged at some point. I knew he had the ring. However for about the last week, he had been talking about not being ready to get engaged. Or not thinking it was the right time because of the upcoming holidays. In fact he even asked me if I'd be upset if we weren't engaged this weekend!!! I just figured that he'd just propose when he was ready. No big deal.

Saturday, FI came to my house and we were in my kitchen. FI mentioned something about a necklace I had on. He asked me if I thought I would still like the ring that he had gotten me. I told him of course I would, because I know how much work he put into. (He actually designed my ring himself.)
So he then says, well, do you want your ring now? I was like stop it, you said you weren't ready. He was like, well do you want the ring or not? And I just was like oh whatever, stop being mean. The next thing I know he's down on one knee asking me to marry him!!!!!!! I was shocked?!!? I was of course sputtering, and asking him about how he told me he wasn't ready. He then apologized for 'lying' but he wanted to 'throw me off the trail' and give me a surprise proposal. As he says he 'punk'd' me. After I got over the initial shock, I of course said yes!!

It was a perfect proposal for us. We are hoping to plan a Nov 2010 wedding!

What a gorgeous ring...

Best wishes for a wonderful future together!

Congrats, K-n-K! :)

Thanks Ladies!!!
 

Thank you all for the warm wishes. It still sort of surreal. I think I'm still floating on cloud nine. I think every time I talk to my FI (which is still weird to call him that?!) I'm like are we REALLY getting married? Lucky for me he thinks it is so cute.

I'm sure I'll be coming to you all with wedding ideas etc as we start to plan. We agreed to basic start planning after the holidays and our b-days.

Wow!! Congratulations!!! :)

I'm an awful friend for not having responded earlier but CONGRATS again! You know I'm here for you for all your wedding planning needs! :)
