After being shut down three separate times, she finally agreed to go out with me by the year 2004. Before we were dating, I had Ricki pick a "random" card - the 5 of Spades. That night she found the 5 of Spades under her pillow when she went to bed -- yeah I know it's creepy, but hey, we're married now! HAHA. On the night of my proposal in 2006, after taking her for an airplane ride over the city and then to her favourite restaurant, underneath a bridge in King’s Park, Winnipeg, MB, where we had our first date, I used a magic trick to reveal a red silk with an engagement ring attached. As cheesy as it was, she said yes and the rest is history.
