Asked the girlfriend to marry me at Lake Fort Gibson at Sunset on Saturday. Luckily, she said yes. I think asking her Dad was almost as nerve racking as asking her. :D

We live in Dallas, and all her family lives in the Tulsa/Sapulpa area, so she was able to share it with her entire immediate family. She hasn't stopped smiling yet, so that alone is worth it.

She is an Oklahoma graduate and she may be more excited about the upcoming football season than planning a wedding.

Now, if I've been paying attention the last couple of years on here, my life is pretty much downhill from here, and I all the stuff I like doesn't matter anymore. ;)

The view about 1 minute before I asked:

The dog tag I put on our puppy with the question on it and had her look at on our walk on the beach:

I asked my wife's dad too. And I agree. It was more nerve-racking than the actual proposal.

Everyone doesn't do this?

I did too. Good form, colley. I had this big speech planned and got about half of a sentence out before he was shaking my hand and dragging me out to the living room to break open celebratory drinks.

Congrats.

Congrats CVS! Married life is awesome. The first year is usually the sharpest learning curve. Nice set up for the proposal by the way.

Congratulations. Nice pic of the lake too. My son and I were fishing about that time and came across a broken down boat and towed them in while watching the same sunset.

Good Luck!

That's the sappiest, silliest thing I've ever read. Guys are such suckers. I'm taking odds on when she hangs an "I'm hiring an attorney and divorcing your ***" tag on the pooch.......

Oh well, congrats anyhow. Many moons of matrimony and all that goofy stuff.

You should've just bashed her over the head and drug her to your cave like Dean did.

That is the sweetest thing I have ever heard!! I think I am going to cry now.... :O

Really...very very sweet...the puppy's tag was adorable...I am sure she was blown away.

Congratulations!!!

and from Stanley:

Stanley: And to think…..I was right on the other side of the lake. I’ve met the Mrs as well, and she is good peeps. Out of CVS’s league, but good peeps. They are very good together, I knew the first time I met them that this day would come. Congrats CVS, very nice proposal set-up.

Nope, just thought of it cause she loves the dogs so much. Got her favorites all in, the dogs, the lake and her family. Plus, we were both wearing OU shirts at the time. :D

Wrong. Nothing like that at all.

We had gone out for dinner in OKC, she was wearing this really tight leather skirt with a tight red sweater and looked like a Godess. I reached under the table and felt the softness of her legs, as my fingers slowly wandered further north, I discovered she was pantiless, I looked her in the eye, noticed a slight sheen of persperation on her face, and just as she let out a quiet moan, I said "so, when are we hooking up?"

Of course it was already determined that she could cook, clean, garden, can, fish, hunt, and loved the country. Otherwise, we'd have been chowing down in sweats at Ruby's.

colley, my southern belle Italian mama always warned me to "never marry a man who doesn't like dogs, hates his mama, has dirty nails or wears worn out shoes." Including the doggy in your proposal was so sweet. I know you love your mama and I'll bet you have clean nails and nice shoes. :)

I wish you both all the best.

I'm a conservative missy. My party has pretty much gone south on me. And just cause I believe in Jesus - and hate murderers, puppy dumpers, and queers doesn't mean I don't like me some hotness.
