The Ellen Show

Something not many people know is that when Jordan and I were dating, and at that time we were talking about becoming engaged. Jordan told me that he is so scared to talk to my dad but, I told him it's a requirement to marry me :).

A few days later I was watching my favorite show Ellen. Along the bottom of the screen during her show is info of stuff on their website. At one point the bar said " Have something that you need Ellen's help with? Tell us your story at the ellentv.com"... In my mind "DING DING DING DING DING!" So, when Jordan got off work we went online!

It basically said that Jordan wanted help in asking my dad if he could marry me. Along with your story you need to post a picture. We posted our saloon picture (below).

A few days later JORDAN RECEIVED A CALL! It was from Ellen's office! The lady said the picture is why she called! The lady told Jordan that the phone interview will take about 10 minutes... they spoke on the phone for over an hour! Jordan had her laughing and falling in love with him (he does that very well). At the end of the phone call she said that the next step is talking with the director, and that she would call him sometime that week. Then the next step would be the SHOW!

Jordan called me right away. I didn't believe him at all and was just laughing. Then he started telling me the conversation they had... in my mind I thought... he can't make this up! I was SO excited!! So that week we anxiously waited for the Director of the Ellen show to call.

Finally she called! Jordan and her talked for a while... answering a few of her questions. Then the question came up.. how old are you two? When he told her... she then said she had to call him back. ... well, she never did. LAME!

We didn't tell anyone about it because... we didn't want people to know that we were talking about getting engaged... honestly we forgot about it over time...

So, last week we remembered and told my parents... they laughed! But, seriously.. how cool would that have been?! BEST EVER! Those who do not know... my dad said NO to Jordan the first time he asked... So, we asked my dad how much more different the conversation would have gone if Ellen asked... he just replied... I could say no to Ellen.

Good thing my dad didn't say no to Jordan the second time :)

ANYWAYS Ellen I still love you but, your Director is lame... but, I will still watch your show.
