The Engagement

Lisa: I'm not going to lie...the Day of the Engagement was probably one of the worst days I've had at work...not the worst by far but in the top ten worst days.

I had just gotten back from North Carolina and Aaron & I had found a place to live for next year...yeah! Then I got back to Wishard and reality set back in...I'm still a resident and my life sometimes sucks. I didn't know what was going on with my patients (at least we weren't post-call-be thankful for the small things!), I had to take part in a painful project with the students in which I was literally falling asleep on them...oops, and to top it off I was too tired to take a shower that morning so I didn't feel the cleanest =)

I called Aaron to pick me up and I see him get out of the car to open the door for me...he was dressed up in a suit and I was like...."If you think I'm going out with you looking like this you have another thing coming!" I made him push back the reservation so I could go home and take a shower and look presentable.

I'll never forget going to the restaurant with him, sitting across the table from him, and seeing his face as he gave me the ring. My filtered thoughts: " I love this man more than words can describe and I am honored to spend the rest of my life with him." Te quiero, mucho!

Aaron: Moments before proposing, I looked into the eyes of the love of my life and the world stopped. The words I had prepared to tell her were inadequate for such a perfect moment. I can't express how excited I am to have the most amazing person to ever cross my path, become a part of the rest of my life. I love you. Eu amo-te.
