Our Engagement




We went on a family vacation with James Mom (Mary), Austin, James and I to Orlando, Florida for Austin's spring break from school. On one of the days we ended up going to the Epcot Center and I had fantasized about sipping coffee in the little make believe Paris, France they had setup. So James and I got a cappuccino and a strawberry tart and found a quaint little table on the Paris cobblestone street front. James started getting all goofy and fidgety which he never does….he’s usually outgoing and the life of the party! I asked him is everything ok? He then get’s up out of his chair and kneels in front of me….he could hardly speak a little “squeak” came out and then had asked “Will you spend the rest of your life with me?” Of course I started crying and said YES!! I was not expecting it at all; I couldn’t have been more surprised. It was amazing!! The whole time Mary and Austin were off to the side of the cobblestone street video taping the moment….I had no idea that was even happening….I was oblivious to everything around me. It was a very special moment for us both being able to include Austin and his mom in the moment and then having the video to share later with everyone else. We ended up all having lunch and I basked in the glory of my new gorgeous ring on my finger….taking what seemed to be at least a million pictures. The rest of the day I spent calling and texting everyone I knew to tell them and about our engagement and show them my new bling-bling. James did a great job picking out the ring….it defiantly gives me the princess feel that I would have picked for myself. A perfect once in a lifetime day!!
