    We met when he was 3 and I was 5 in 1986. We stayed friends all those years and finally saw past the friendship to forever in May 2011. We married in September 2013. Our renewal date in next September.

    It was under. It was 7 months. In our defense we dated when I was 15 and he was 20, and we connected on Facebook as friends for a few years before we started dating again.

    One of my favorite places is the coast, we went to a look out called cape foul weather(it is located in otterrock oregon),
    Well we were lookin out and i seen spouts of water shooting up. Which means whales!
    I was so excited for the whales i paid him little attention, i was so busy ordering this whale to jump so could tell identify the species that i hadnt noticed he was trying to get my hand he was trying to grab my hand the whole time, well i turned to him and spoke these words which will forever be etched into my tombstone "you really want my hand dont you?" He replied yes i do slipped the ring into my hand and got on one knee..
    Down below in this cove area one of the whales had come in so i got to see it after he finished the proposal...
