The first week of November in 2015, Miguel told Claire they were going out to eat with a couple that Friday. He let Claire pick the restaurant (Italian of course) and told Claire they were going to get dressed up because they hadn't had a nice dinner in a while. Claire thought nothing special about this dinner- they had never been out with this couple before and thought Miguel was just trying to get us out of the house.

The dinner was normal and we had good drinks, food and conversation. But when the waitress asked if we wanted dessert and Miguel promptly responded with a "YES!", Claire thought it was strange because we never get dessert and there was nothing Claire really wanted but Miguel insisted. While waiting for the dessert, Miguel excused himself for the bathroom and he seemed to be in there for quite some time. When he came back, he sat down for only a minute and then stood back up again. Claire looked at him with an annoyed face and said, "You JUST went to the bathroom, you really have to go again??" Meanwhile Miguel is getting down on one knee in front of the whole restaurant asking Claire to marry him. Completely in shock, Claire asked if he had asked her parents first (she did NOT see this coming and didn't think there was any way he could have slipped this by her if he had asked her parents) he replied yes and Claire happily accepted the proposal and ring.

Surprising Claire is hard to do but Miguel managed to pull it off as she had NO clue he was going to propose that day or any day soon. Good job, Miguel.
