The question everyone has been asking..

What better way to begin this blog, than by telling the story of how we got to this point to begin with? Many people have been asking how Rony proposed...so I will try to capture the moment as best as possible, without getting into too much detail, as to not bore you guys! For the record, Rony is much better at telling this story than I am, I was too busy freaking out to really recap the night! But, I will try anyways!

As you may know, Rony and I went on a cruise to celebrate our 1 year anniversary, the weekend of November 18-21, 2011. We arrived at the port early, so we had plenty of time to explore the cruise, and get settled in. After a few hours of exploring, lunch, and reluctantly saying goodbye to the internet and FB (ok, maybe that was just me) we decided to go back to the room and relax for a little while. We laid down to watch a movie (The Green Lantern, which we proceeded to watch over and over all weekend, by the way! Am I taking too long to get to the point? Ok, Ill try to hurry it up! 

After watching the movie for a little while, Rony got up and went to the safe (I later figured this out, obviously I didn't know this at the time.) and laid back down to watch the movie. He begins to talk to me about the past year of our relationship, how happy he is and how much he loves our life together. He asks me if I remember what he said to me when he asked me to be his girlfriend. (Of course I did! His exact words were "I want you to be my girl.") He then goes "Well, I want you to be my girl, forever. Thats why I want to give you this." and he takes out the ring box! I had a freak out moment and didn't even know what to say, So Rony had to remind me to open the ring box, and see the ring, lol. I opened the ring box, and he finally says "Will you be my wife?" And then I officially freaked out! I think I asked him a dozen times if he was serious, lol, After a few minutes of me freaking out, Rony finally asks "Ok, is that a yes or a no?" I was so caught up in the moment, I had totally forgotten to answer him! Of course I said YES!!!! We had a nice mushy, emotional moment, but ill spare you guys the details, lol. 

Once the moment was over, I gave him a gentle "slap" on the arm, and told him how much he sucked for proposing on a cruise, knowing I wouldn't be able to share my excitement with anyone for days! He had strategically planned it this way, so we could enjoy our engagement just the two of us, before coming home and dealing with all the congratulatory excitement from everyone else. And as much as I hate to admit it, his timing was perfect! We got to enjoy the rest of our cruise weekend, as a newly engaged couple! :)

The proposal was perfect, the ring was GORGEOUS, and the weekend was just amazing all around. I cannot express how happy I was, and how happy I am to be marrying my best friend and love. 

Well, there you have it! Hope this didn't make you too nauseous, and I was able to capture my total happiness of the event!
