Default Engaged in Cuba!!

We went to Cuba with FH's family and one day he asked if I wanted to go for a walk on a beach. I wasn't feeling so well but I thought that a walk would help my stomach a bit....we walked around the resort and then on our way back to our hotel room we took the beach back. I saw that someone had written "Will you marry me?" in the sand and I of course had to comment how sweet it was that a guy was asking his gf to marry him like that....I turned around to see his response and he was on one knee holding a gorgeous ring! Haha I was definately too shocked to say yes at first!!! I thought I would always cry once I got proposed to, but I think I was in too much shock!!!! I didnt even hear his little speech that he made cause I was too overjoyed!!! Of course I eventually said yes...it was definately the best holiday ever!!!!

He too had asked my parents for their blessing a week before we went for our trip. That was something very important to me because I know my father and mother would appreciate it.

Thats my story!!!

That's awesome! So simple, but so perfect! And seems like he knows you pretty good if you were about to comment on how sweet you thought it was before you realized it was for you! :)
