Yesterday Mark and I helped Mark's parents move out of their house. It was a lot of work, but filled with fun and family time. Mark and I made a quick stop at the Farmer's Market and then headed over to their old house to start moving furniture. Partially due to my weak upper body strength and partially due to their extremely heavy furniture, I wasn't able to help move that much stuff, but it was nice to be there. Their new condo is really nice and it was fun to see it come together with all their stuff. After the big move Mark and I went for a walk at Frederick's Hill which I also mentioned in this post. It was a lovely day for a walk. The hill is now extremely green (last time it was very snow covered). We sat down on a bench where we'd sat on our last visit there. We were talking and Mark started telling me how much he loved me- everything about me and doing everything with me, and then said he wanted to spend the rest of his life with me. He got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. Of course I said yes! I love Mark very much. The ring was my Grammy's so it is very special to me. We're thinking sometime next July! We stopped by Mark's parents condo and his Grandma's apartment and I called my parents. Then we went out to the Union Terrace to celebrate with some ice cream.
I love my life. :-)
