Well, moving on with my life.

Post by 71fordkid »

Last night, I made the girl i have known since we were 7, my wife-to-be. we have been together for almost 5 years. we've broken up twice, but relalized our mistakes and went back to each other. I made it clear before, she goes before the truck goes, unless i choose! haha. and progress on the step-bump will resume soon, i have a year and a half to get it running and presentable to use in the wedding! :woohoo:

heres a picture of the ring. sorry its so fuzzy, i couldnt get my phone to focus on it.

Finish your build before the big day.

Why? Cuz that loving look you get now when buying truck parts will turn into a stern glare when you'd supposed to be saving up for a house... or even a couch.
