I'm engaged!
Hello everyone! It's been awhile... I just got home today after 4 weeks in Europe! It was an amazing trip :)
On my birthday, we went on an excursion to the Isle of Capri. It was a beautiful day! Our first stop was the Gardens of Augustus. All I can say is it was breathtaking! The views were just amazing, the water was such an intense aqua color at the bottom of the cliffs below us, and it was the most amazing place I'd ever been! I told Scott I didn't think there was a more perfect place existing on Earth!
Unfortunately, I had some lemoncello in Rome the night before and I was not feeling too well :rolleyes: Most of the rest of our group left to find some food and I sat down on a bench. Scott wandered back to the fence overlooking the water and then walked back to me and told me to come with him for some more pictures. I was like what??? I am not feeling well! We took a million pictures already! But I went anyway. He took me right to the fence and he looked at me and said "I couldn't think of a more perfect place to do this" and tears were streaming down his face! So then I started crying, and he pulled out the ring and got down on one knee and we were both crying, and I think he choked out "Will you marry me" at some point but I was hugging him before I could even put the ring on! It was absolutely PERFECT!
There were two couples there from our group, and when he went over the first time before coming back for me, he handed our camera to one of the girls, and she took pictures of the whole thing :)
I'm kind of reliving the whole thing now because it happened almost 3 weeks ago but I just got home and can now show everyone the ring and have some time to tell the story! Eeeek! I'm getting married!!!! |
