Is there hope for me yet?

So here I am, once again surprised that I am actually writing! Yea me. So although I love to post about Poppy there really isn't much to say. I will tell you how the Prince officially proposed to the princess if you promise not to laugh at my lack of spell check. (Side note after a weekend with my mom, dad, grandma, and sister I am exhausted and will probably forget to hit the spell check button...)
So after becoming unofficially engaged the prince and princess decided to spend Christmas in Logan (Wellsville) Ut. His brother was blessing his baby and the princess wanted to meet the family. The prince flew into Las Vegas (and after asking for her ring and being denied) they spent the night in Alamo. She was so excited to be with the prince, as this visit would double the time that they had been in the same state. Although the princess was hoping for a ring for Christmas, she was not very optimistic, he kept telling her that they would pick one out together when they got back to Las Vegas after visiting hs family as he would be staying a few days). When she had visited the prince the last time, they looked at rings, but the prince just didn't want to buy one. None were quite right.
The prince and princess decided to take the whole day to travel, they would eat pizza at "The Pie" in Salt Lake and then look at the Christmas lights on temple square before arriving in Logan. She didn't really care what they did because she was happy being with the prince and in love (yea I know that is sappy, but fairy tales often are you know).
Dinner was good, but the restaurant was crowded and the happy couple ended up squeezing into the corner to sit at a wobbly table surrounded by noisy groups. How romantic!
Moving right along, the prince was very lucky because right as they parked he decided to get his jacket out of the suitcase. As the princess was side tracked by a fire truck and an ambulance, the prince retrieved his jacket with no questions asked. Holding hands they walked around temple square. The princess was so excited that she could now just hold the prince's hand without hints and rejection that she was content to just wander. Her hand was getting cold, so she stuck it in the prince's jacket pocket. He slipped his hand out quickly and the princess wondered why he was so fidgety. They admired the lights and wandered over over to where the mall used to be. Conveniently there was a horse and carriage ride. As they were standing in line the couple behind them began arguing and the guy leaned forward and said, "Hey do you want to share a carriage? They are expensive!" This was not part of the plan, so after an awkward little silence (while the prince's brain worked frantically) the prince just said, "uh no thanks. We want to be alone..." How eloquent!
On the carriage ride snuggled up behind a horse named Ralph and a chatty driver, Jason asked, "Erin will you marry me?"
She promptly said, "Not until you give me a ring!" He asked her often and she was a little irritated and wanted her ring!
He sneakily pulled something out of his pocket and asked, "Will this one do?"
Well she assured him that it would (because it was one that she had picked out).
Sorry time to sign off! I will add more later...
