So I'm thinking it would be good to document something like getting engaged. February 20, 2010 will go down in history as the best proposal ever. As we had cheese and chocolate at The Melting Pot our friends Cody and Caryn arrived (surprise 1). Trevor said Caryn was going to draw a characature of us (surprise 2). Trevor asked me to marry him (long awaited surprise 3). Many hugs and smiles were to follow.
To give some history Trevor and I have been dating for 6 years. Ever since senior prom we have been together. While Trevor has many perks (good looks, great sense of humor, awesome hair), what I really want to write about is how he is my best friend.
Trevor and I have known each other since I was 12, but we didn't really start talking until 12th grade. AIM was quite the popular thing to do back then and Trevor and I started chatting. Through all those chats we became great friends and even band mates. Trevor would mention how he thinks you should really get to know a girl before you date them (I never thought he might be referring to me). Needless to say the rest is history.
The greatest thing about marrying Trevor is that he is my best friend. Our friendship was the start of our relationship and it will remain as we become husband and wife. He makes me laugh, makes me feel beautiful every day, and I know that he loves me. I think it is so important to be friends with your spouse. In Genesis 2:18 it says, The LORD God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him." Well, God sure knows what he is doing. Ezer is the Hebrew word which means assistance, support, or help. I am so honored to be Trevor's ezer and companion in life and that I am going to marry my best friend.
