Engagement

Yep, I finally got around to it

I left this for a seperate entry considering it is such an important thing!

So for a while now I have been thinking about 'popping the question' and I got around to it in Switzerland at 2000m above sea level - so if the question did not take her breath away then the altitude surely would!!

I have some friends in Switzerland from a few years ago when they boarded with my family, one of them (Bari) helped me out with buying the ring and another (Sebi) helped me out with the location. His parents have a chalet up in the Alps and I thought that would be the perfect place to do the deed.

So after arriving, lighting a wood fire and settling in we popped on our snow shoes and I popped the ring in my pocket and we set off into the snow! Reaching a small summit with no one else in sight and only the sound of crackling ice and melting snow I reached into my jacket pocket and pulled out the ring box.

I made some causual remark then asked Erika, if she would like to marry me. At first she did not believe me but it sank in and she said yes! So that is the news everyone, we are engaged!

Photos coming soon!
