213 Days

So ..... yep we decided to get hitched..... this is how it all went down

once upon a time tony bought a shiny ring and desi knew about it.  She could not keep a secret to save her life so the people at Stampin' Up! awaited with her the arrival of the rock.  A couple days later Desi went home and her father, silly man that he is, told her that Tony had called to talk to him.  Desi replied "DAD! you're not supposed to tell me that!"  But secretly she wanted to know and was happy to know everything was in the works.
The very next night Desi was going to dinner with some ladies from work and knew it would be the perfect time to talk to her parents.  Paula even said that she had dinner plans at 5.  Desi was quite suspicious but was quite disappointed when Tony invited her over to his house at 5:30 before she went to dinner.
The next day Desi hoped that it would happen..... no luck.
So the next week after a little anxiety time ;) yikes... the patience set in.  Everyday at work she got questioned if she had received the bling.  Yes, this was her own fault for not being able to keep a secret.  The patience started to wear out after a week.
Saturday she went to help Linda help pat with her makeup for her bridals and chatted with them about how she suspected today might be the day since they had a triple date with Curtis and Amanda.  Linda told Deb to not get her hopes up though.
So Linda aka lindsey dropped deb aka desi off at antoine's aka tony's house to go to Tron for the triple date.  I realized that people were getting ready to see an actual movie and maybe I had gotten my aka Desi's hopes up too fast.  We met the other movie participants there and walked in to a dark theater.  As I walked in Desi said "why are the lights already turned off?"  since the previews had not started.
switching to first person since this is Daryl....
 We sat in the handi-capable section towards the front since Curtis had just had surgery and was on crutches.  I put on my 3D glasses and had my legs up on the seat in front of me just chillin.  Then the advertisements stopped and i said "that was weird" and then some music started up My cherie amour started playing and I so beautifully, innocently, and loudly started lalalala-ing along when all the sudden I see my face pop up

I pull a classic Deb and just start laughing as tony starts saying "stand up, stand up" so I stand up and some people start clapping and he gets on a knee and asks me to marry him.  I don't remember saying yes - I just stuck my hand out and kept laughing.  Then he stood up and hugged me and i heard a "Yay Stinky" I turned around and said "Shane's here?"  and my whole family as well as tony's were hiding on the back row of the theater.  Bumpa had a sweet disguise of a black beany, 3D glasses and a trench coat.  Pat and Mel were fully committed and laid on the floor - Pat got yelled at by two ladies telling them to get up and move because they were blocking their seats-hahaha.  Then pat got to sit next to the lady during the movie.  They were excellent sports.

the evening resulted in the classic photo op spot of the taylor household as lisa likes to say

and we will be marriaged Sept 7 in the SLC Temple and we hope that you will be there!!
