The Engagement Story!

November 5, 2010 is a day Scott and I will never forget,

neither will a couple hundred other people, (including this guy).

{Or maybe they will, who knows.}

I had been house sitting and got a text from my sister saying I had a surprise.

I was so curious and I knew I wouldn't be home for a couple hours.

Finally I was able to talk her into sending me a picture of it.

-Flowers from Scott Smith!-

Scott came up the the house a little later and  I painted my nails with "Chapel of Love." 

Which turned out to be very fitting.

We headed over to my aunts to babysit my nieces and my cousin Blythe.

I kept getting what I thought were "Signs"  that I knew tonight was the night.

It really doesn't make sense why I picked up on it.  But I was pretty certain.

After babysitting we went to The Rocket Summer concert.

I thought it was going to happen after the concert.

Here are a few pictures before the concert! 

 A little over half way through the concert Bryce Avary started taking requests.

He said "Is there a Scott Smith out there, I heard he has a request."

I was so confused.

Scott started walking towards the stage, taking me with him.

It was really crowded and it was hard getting up there.

Bryce started playing a song because it was taking so long.

Finally we got up there and told a guy who we were.

After he finished playing that song we went onstage. 

I kept thinking for some reason Scott was going to play a song or something.

 

I knew Scott was going to propose but I did not know it was going to be right then.

Bryce Avary, who is The Rocket Summer, had him use the microphone to make his "request."

He said I was his girlfriend and that he loved me.

The crowd starting cheering, people were chanting "do it, do it!" and other people were pulling out their cameras.

Scott turned me around so I couldn't see him pull the ring out from the little pocket he had made out of felt.  (It was taped to his leg which was then covered by his sock and pants for safe keeping.)

He got down on one knee.

The crowd was so loud, I honestly don't know exactly what he said, but I'm sure it was perfect.

I gave a couple very enthusiastic nods and that was it:

We were engaged!!

Bryce Avary said, "Give it up for the future Mr. And Mrs. Scott Smith!"

Everyone was cheering and it was such a rush!

If you want to see it for yourself, you can watch it here.

My sister made a video and I think it's absolutely perfect!

After we got off the stage I asked Scott if my parents knew,

after the concert was over he told me how he flew to Long Beach and back in a day

so he could talk to my dad. 

I had no idea.

Seriously none.

The little sneak, told me he would be working all day and wouldn't be able to text or talk much.

Scott was able to spend pretty much the whole day with my parents.

Which means more to me than I could ever say.

Here are a couple photos after the concert.  

The first one is of Bryce Avary and us!
