Ramblings of a .NET developer

Announcement

Just wanted to take a moment this morning to announce that on Saturday night, I proposed to my girlfriend, Tricia, and she (of course) said Yes.

We'd gone out to Scandia (kind of like a Golfland), where we had our first date, to play some miniature golf.  Halfway through our second game, I noticed I was losing, so I went and placed the ring box in the hole while she was lining up for her shot.  A few minutes later, she made her ball, and when she reached in to pick it up, she noticed the ring box.  She then said "What's that?" and started poking it with her club.  I told her to wait a minute, bent down to pick it up, and was on one knee when I opened it up and then asked her to marry me.  She was completely shocked, froze stiff, and just kept saying "Oh my gosh, oh my gosh!"

And the rest is history...

For some pictures, feel free to check out my photo album.
