ecstaticFirst major thing I did that morning was take my car (did I mention I just got it this week? No?) and find a beautiful spot, up on Provo Canyon (just off US-189) about a mile north of the Sundance/Timpanogos Cave (UT-92) turn-off. I would have need of it later that day.
(I wanted to go to Bridal Veil Falls, instead, but there was no parking there during the "winter season".)
Did that, returned to get ready to go to the Provo Temple (needed to have my church clothes on for that), then went and did my laundry for the week and got back to the house, where my girlfriend was waiting for me.
We went to the temple, and then back to my apartment to change out of church clothes. I had told her to bring walking shoes, and that was the only clue I had given as to where we were going. Then we went back up Provo Canyon, pulled over, and walked down to the river. Then, I gave her this...
She said yes.
After that, we drove back to Orem so she could show her mom and a few of her friends, we went out for lunch, and talked for a while.
FYI: The wedding date is set for September 22nd, 2011 (we had been talking about when for a week), at the Manti temple. (Her parents were married there, and I visited there about 10 years ago and have wanted to get married there, if possible, ever since.) Exactly when, I've got to call Monday and set up. (I called last Thursday to get what information I'd need.)
