How I proposed to Mandy

My sister and I flew Mandy in from Vancouver to Toronto on Thursday night, March 2nd. She arrived at the airport at 1:00 am and was met by a pre planned limo.




Kathy and I in the morning before she leaves for Paris.
After dealing with my pre engagement stress for almost two weeks. Thanks Kathy
Kathy say's I am welcome -->









Mandy and I make our way through Toronto to the CN tower. I had made a reservation for us and had asked the waiter to take a picture of Mandy and I as I proposed. I had told Mandy that I was going to get the waiter to take a picture of us eating dinner on the CN Tower. She had no idea I was about to propose.

Look at her face, is she shocked or what!!
Me on one knee placing the wring on her finger. I lover Her

Look at that Smile (below), the Happy couple :*)



We pick up some mementos, from the CN tower gift shop, to help freeze the moment forever. Check out the key chains, we got one each.

We head back to my Sisters by cab and have some champagne and truffles. I had them waiting, along with some special champagne glasses I had picked up just for this moment.



That is the box the truffles came in, is that sweet or what?



I had great help getting the chocolate's and the champagne glasses picked out, by some very encouraging employees at Ashley on Bay St. Here is a picture of the employee's that were instramental in my being able to pull this wonderfull night off. The ladies to the left helped me with the chocolates and the box, the lady below helped me pick out the glasses







The next Morning we head out to do some shopping in Toronto, and to get Mandy's nail's done. Here are some photo's of the stores I had been to while preparing for the proposal, and some pictures of the Toronto Ice Festival.








It was a great trip in Toronto. Here is a picture of the ring, and what a beautiful hand. I love you Mandy.

I do outcall service. I can call your man, and tell him what needs to be done. I can also submit a step by step lesson on how to propose, for a nominal fee. I also give sex lessons, for the woman only. OK pay me enough and men are included. The truth of the great wedding proposal was all in who I am when I think of my girl. I will stop at nothing to please her, so while it may seem like alot of effort or very thoughtfull, it actually is very easy when you have such an increadible woman you are maddly in love with. So I can't take all the credit. Love owned it's shit on that one. a full shout out to love for mandy.
