I had to share this with everyone. I think the people on the DISboards are probably the only ones who truly understand how exciting this is! My DH took me to the MK as a surprise. Here are a few pics from that day:

Here's the story:

My DH and decided to get married 10 yrs ago, and I never really got a true proposal. I have always told him that I wanted to get "engaged" at the castle. I kept hoping that it would happen this year since we have been able to go a lot and since we had tried on anniversary bands around Christmas. He told me that he wasn't able to afford a band for me and that it would have to wait a couple of years since we are paying for our VR. He's such a good lier!!

I knew that something was up this week b/c he kept acting funny all week. Then he brought me home a dozen red roses - my favorite - and a very sweet mushy card. This is something that he hasn't done in years. Then on Wed., he told me I had to cancel the kids' eye doctor appointment for Thurs. I was upset b/c this Dr is a specialist, and it takes weeks to get into see him. So after I had a fit, my husband tells me that we are going to eat dinner inside the castle at the MK! :woohoo:So of course now I feel like a butt for getting upset. :guilty:

I decided to dress my DD up in her Cinderella costume since that is her favorite princess princess:, and we were going to see her. We got so much attention from cast members all day long! We were given buttons and stickers and fast passes and all kinds of stuff. We got to ride a total of 7 rides, and we had virtually no wait at any of them. However, Peter Pan did break down while we were over London, and I did freak out a little! LOL! But thankfully it didn't last long.

My DH and I got into an argument in the car ride there over him not remembering to pack some things. I was so mad by the time we actually got off the tram, that I wasn't speaking to him. Then some women litterally ran my little princess over!! Just completely bulldozed her and skinned both of her knees. :headache:It was awful. When we got into the park, I had to take the kids to the bathroom, then we stopped to eat our lunchables, and my DH told me I had to take the kids to the bathroom again. I was really angry by this point and told him that I was not having a magical day. :mad: I didn't come to Disney to see the bathrooms. He promised me that he would make it up to me later and to just calm down.

So then the light went off in my head :idea: and I realized that all the bathroom trips and not going on rides were b/c he was up to something again, and once again I felt like a complete butt! I can be sooo mean! So I decided to calm down and finally enjoy our day, and the rest of it was just amazing! :cloud9:

Once we got seated at our table in the castle, he pulls out a box from Arribas Bros. and sets it on the table in the middle. I keep staring at it, but he doesn't say anything. He get really shy and nervous when it comes to things like this, so I guess he was working up the nerve to do it. A few minutes later, he opens the box - now he was really nervous! - and inside is a glass slipper with Dan and Tanya engraved on the side and a diamond anniversary band inside!!! :cheer2: I looked at it and was in shock! I literally gasped, and he took that as a bad sign. LOL! He got down on one knee and asked me if I would marry him again. I said yes of course. It was sooo sweet.:love:

I wish we could have gotten a pic of the actual proposal, but I think that he would have fainted if that had happened. He said he was just too scared to ask someone to do it. Plus he figured I wouldn't be surprised if someone was standing there with a camera in our face. :lmao: It was sweet and perfect just the same. After dinner we watched Spectromagic and stayed for wishes, and had a great view. It was perfect. I love him so much for making my dreams come true!!
 
awww. How cute! :love: I always love happy stories!

Its always so much fun to be surprised with big surprises. I am so glad he made all of your wishes come true, and that you had such a great day!
 

Oh wow that's just an awesome story!! :thumbsup2 I often am a buttmunch to my DF, just when he's trying to be sweet, so I understand completely! :lmao:

How did he ever get that slipper without you catching on? Was that part of the bathroom thing?

Is your DD ok? Some people down there would just as soon mow you down. She looked adorable though!!princess:
 
What a wonderful story! I'm so happy you got the proposal you always wanted :-)

MY DH told me later that if I had stayed in a bad mood that he had decided that he wasn't going to give me the ring! I was being that grumpy! Thankfully, the magic of Disney made everything alright.;)

And yes, all the trips to the bathroom were for him to go order the slipper and then pick it up after it was engraved.

My DD is fine! Thanks for asking. She just has two skinned knees and cried for a good 10 minutes. That lady was so rude! She didn't even appologize for running down a 2 yr old princess.
 
Awww fantastic - congrats!! Your DD looks stunning in her princess dress, hope those skinned knees healed up ok! It does sound like the most perfectly wonderful disney proposal!
 
This is a great story--so sweet!! And your children are BEAUTIFUL--I LOVE the cinderella costume!
