About 1 month

7. How did he/she ask you out?
He just asked

8. How did he propose to you?
Mark proposed on April 1, 2005 (yes, April Fools day). It was a Friday, the day before General Conference. Mark said he was helping a friend set up for a mission reunion all day. I thought, okay. Well, later that day his sister Amy and her friend Shelly called me and asked if I wanted to come with them to the mall and shop for a dress for their friends birthday. Apparently their friends boyfriend gave them a bunch of money to buy her a dress, and I was her size. I tried on a bunch of dresses and kept wondering why they were asking how I liked it. Then later that night I was going to Olive Garden with Mark's family. So, Amy came and picked up with her dad's Audi TT. I was wondering why she was driving it. She said before we went to Olive Garden she had to drop the dress off at her friends house, but she was really walking to Mark's car parked down the street and left. Well...she proceeded to drive up to "the spot." She parked the car in the loop and walked down the street. Then "Amy's" phone rang. It said, "Ashley pick up the phone." It was kind of creepy when I first heard it. Mark was on the phone and told me to get out of the car and follow the path to the top of the water tank. So, I did and when I get to the top a big black dog comes running at me. Mark was there and started yelling at it in Portugeuse. On top of the water tank there was a red carpet and flower petals all over the place. Mark was dressed in a suit and I was in overalls and a jacket. Well, the rest is history...Mark proposed and we got married June 22, 2005. It turns out the dress I tried on earlier that day was for me. After Mark proposed we got in the TT and drove up to The Roof for dinner.
