The proposal - John version
John's storyI was near the dock looking out into the city. I said "Come look at this with me, she said "Ugh." and wined. I went over & got her. I tell her "look at the skyline - Isn't it beautiful - The city all lit up at night " she replie "yea, but look at the water" then I say "Could you imagine being locked up with me for ever?" she replies "of course baby" so I got down on one knee - pull out the ring and asked her to marry me. She replies "Are you kidding - Are you joking". I looked around - thinking I was on candid camera - again I repeat "will you marry me" My girlfriend has a glazed look in her eyes - She says "What do you think? Of Course - I will - You shouldn't even need to ask"...
The Proposal - Angie version
Angie's story...It was a cold and foggy night... Well - It really was...We were on a family vacation in San Francisco - taking an evening tour of Alcatraz Island. We were heading back to the boat and we decide to take a little breather from walking up and down the steep hills. I decided to take a little break on the bench - John decided to gaze at the San Fran skyline.. John calls me over but I don't want to get up - calls again still "No" then finally Bonny gives me a little push to get up. John starts commenting on how beautiful the Golden Gate Bridge is and how the lights are bright and shiny... All the while I'm really looking at the water and seeing how close we are and how the water is disappearing under the fog (I start visualizing fog creatures coming to get us)... John says "Would you like to be locked up together", and I say of course - babe!... John gets on one knee and says "Angie, will you marry me" while holding the ring... I romantically respond... "Are you kidding?", "Are you for real" .. I was thinking so many things.. It didn't seem real - I thought it was a bad joke. He asks again - "Will you marry me?" I said "Of Course, Is there any doubt?". Then he puts the ring on my right hand finger.. We quickly figured out that it was the wrong hand. We hug and kiss and then we go tell Bonny and Peter - Still the idea has not hit me.. Until I see Bonny and I hug her - I start crying like a baby... Reality has hit... BOOM .. I'm going to be married !!!

How it all started - really quick version
A little bit of John and I -We both worked for Home Depot - I was a cashier and John a manager. We were introduced to each other and between the water gun fights and the rubber band wars love grew.
