Time for this creature to nest

Well I finally did it, I am officially engaged. I had been planning to give my girlfriend, who is now my fiance, the engagement ring since Thanksgiving but for reasons out of my control I had to postpone for Christmas. She had been asking me, "What did you get me for Christmas", and kept saying," Vitamins", she would respond, " I didn't really want to know what you gave me, but are you serious?", I would respond, "Yes, I am, but the true gift and the element of surprise is that you don't know what type of vitamins you are getting? They could multi's, chewables, Triple Flex, the odds are endless?" This did not please her at all. Then Christmas Day at midnight all the kids opened their presents and I gave Jennifer a bag with tissue paper and vitamins inside. I had told my sister to get the camera because she would like to take a picture of this, then she opened her bag and pulled out a vitamin bottle, which she happily accepted and said,"Vitamins? How nice? Thank You," oh to be mind reader at that time would have been great, there would have been more expletives in a row that would definitely get me and my lineage banished from blogging for at least 3 to 4 generations. Well, I kept encouraging her to pull out more bottles of vitamins and when she was near the end, I pulled out the ring and before my family asked her to marry me, which she said, "Yes, I will marry you!" and with those words, I move into another phase of my life. Oh, and Kobe likes her as well.
