Default He asked me, he asked me....

...on the slopes of italy!!

Just got back from a fab week in Italy and to top it all, my fella asked me to marry him on 'Red run - number six' in Cervinia, Italy.

It was quite a funny moment as he made out he had fallen off his snow board into the deep snow, so when I came round the bend he was just lying there looking hurt (good ploy to get me over)!!

So I stopped in a panic and asked if he was okay, only to be presented with a 'bling, bling'

He was just about to ask me when the rest of our ski party (including, Mum, Sister and friends) turned up, who immediately burst into tears and started yelling, he's asking her to marry him!!

Well of course I said yes, but after I had burst into tears and cleared my goggles

I am the happiest girl in the world right now.

Bye for now

The wedding will be in Oz but we do not have a date yet. Just enjoying the engagement at the moment, will probably start planning things when we get settled over there.

Thanks for your kind message

Congratulations! Bet you're over the moon at the moment! But shouldn't you have proposed to him, being a leap year and all that?

I did threaten to, but he beat me to it

I am glad he asked me though, it was very romantic!

Many congrats to you both. As we celebrate our 5th anniversary today I can tell you that (I think) marriage is great, never been happier.

That's lovely! Do you need a dj or a chef? I do a cracking buffet.
Congratulations to you both.
