Fiona

HOW WE MET After Fiona came back from a trip from Hawaii a guy named Ben emailed Fiona several times to chat with him. It turns out Fiona’s sister made a yahoo profile for Fiona to find "better guys". Fiona emailed him back and they started talking and her first words to Ben in chat was BRB. After several emails and phone calls they met up at Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf for some coffee. The date was going great so Fiona took Ben to a Spanish tapas place called FireFly* for dinner. Ben wanted to impressed Fiona so bad that he even ate calamari and if you know Ben he HATES seafood. They talked a lot during their dinner and Fiona mentioned that her favorite place is the water show in front of the Bellagio. The night was young so they drove to the Bellagio to hang out since the date was still going great and they really enjoyed each others company. The first song that played was Elton John - Your Song. Thats when Ben told Fiona that he really likes Fiona and would like to see Fiona again (aww cute right?). Then Ben said to Fiona that he had an idea. He grabbed her hand and started to walk to the crosswalk. Ben saved Fiona’s life by grabbing her and pulling her off the street because a cab came speeding around the corner without looking (Oh what a hero!). They crossed the street when it was safe and went on top of the Eiffel tower to watch the water show. It was breath taking! Then about 1am Ben dropped Fiona back at her place and kissed good night. Now 3 years later they are still happy as ever and look back at their magical night and wish they can do it all over again. WHEN WE GOT ENGAGED October 22, 2007 HOW WE GOT ENGAGED It was so silly and cute at the whole time. Its such a Ben thing. Fiona just got back from work at Olivia’s Doll House and Tea room and she was SUPER tired and sore. So Fiona told Ben lets go out for dinner. So they did and when they got home Fiona called her mother and chatted with her for about an hour. After she got off the phone Ben was sitting on the couch channel flipping (A little background, they are Tivo fans and normally its working but they just moved into their new house and its not set up for internet. Turns out the Tivo needs to internet to work... who knew? So we were living with out Tivo and it was rough...). Fiona sit down next to Ben and he said "man, there is nothing to watch. Do you want to go for a walk?" Fiona said no because it was super windy outside and cold, plus not to mention VERY sore from working all day. He asked again "Are you sure sure?" And Fiona told him "I am for sure sure." Ben turned around and continued to channel flip again. About 3 minutes later Fiona said "man I wish we had the Tivo...." Then Ben looks at Fiona, reaches into his pocket and said "I bet you rather have this..." Pulls out a BEAUTIFUL ring, gets down on one knee and saids the magic words, "will you marry me?" Fiona screamed and jump on him. After a huge hug and many kisses he asked if she said yes. Fiona’s answer was "of course duh!"
