We're Engaged!!!!


Our first picture after he proposed!

This is the view from the cliff where he proposed: SO BEAUTIFUL!!!

Looking at the hillside. The cluster of trees are is where he got on his knee:)

My perfect ring:)

We got our Wiki's Wacked at Luau Larry's.

So, 5 years and two children later, we are getting married! I cannot put into words how happy I am or how perfect our engagement was. On Saturday we went to Catalina. I LOVE Catalina. If I was rich, I would buy a house there and go once a month. It has always been a sanctuary for me. And has always been the place where I dreamed of getting engaged. It was a perfect sunny day. We rented a golf cart and drove around the island, stopping at all the view points. We got out above the Casino and walked down a bit to get a better look. He said the sweetest things and got on his knee and proposed. I cried and forgot to answer, so he asked again.:) Of coarse, I said yes. We hugged and kissed and I fell in love with him all over again. I will never forget the sincerity in his face and the love in his eyes. I will never forget that the Old Bell Tower chimed just before he asked. I will never forget the peaceful sound of the wind blowing through the eucalyptus trees. Last, I cannot wait to marry the man I fell in love with 5 years ago. Thank you for making my dreams come true! I love you Anthony!!!!
