Three years ago on July 30, 2011 Thomas and I got engaged. With little tears in my eyes I said "Yes!" as he knelt atop Sandia Peak overlooking Albuquerque.
We'd wandered around Santa Fe earlier that day, there was a street fair and we bought a kids book. In the evening we rode a tram to the top of Sandia Peak for dinner at the High Finance restaurant 10,000 feet above the desert. As we stood alone on the observation deck gazing at the city, Thomas played "More Than Words" by Extreme and then "Marry Me" by Train. Once I had the ring on my finger a few other people had noticed what was going on and came to congratulate us. A man in the distance started singing "Unchained Melody" and it was just perfect.
To celebrate three years since we got engaged Thomas played tennis (won the match!) while I crocheted at home watching Dawson's Creek. We ate a simple dinner at home before walking around Home Goods looking for picture frames. We picked up some Ben & Jerry's at the grocery store and watched Project Runway on Hulu. Not quite as exciting as getting engaged but it was still just perfect.
