Well hello ladies!

Thank you for being so patient with me!!! I AM ENGAGEDDDD!!!!!!!

Here is the story!

I was in a deep sleep Friday morning enjoying a rare sleep in when my door is opened by my boyfriend at 9.00am (he doesn''t live with me) and he gives me a kiss and tells me that we are going to go and get some breakfast and he will help me move my stuff to my new apartment! (nice diversion) I tell my brother to not lock up the house cause we will be back soon, he must have misunderstood because when we got back the house was all locked up and no keys!!! So I pulled a ladder out from under the house and my man had to go through the only window that was open which was the second level bathroom window in his nice clean clothes on a rainy day!!!! (I was soooo angry!! I said, don''t lock up!!!!)

anywho!! He made it through no problems and just as my bf opens the front door to me my brother comes back!! He was really apologetic (because my brother knew what my bf was up to and he felt like he might have stuffed it a bit) My boyfriend pulls my duffle bag out and tells me too pack clothes for 3 days!!!

I pack everything I could think of and grab (including swimmers) and we hit the road!! He told me we were going to the hunter valley (wine region in NSW, another diversion) and that disappointed me a bit because we have been there before and its not exciting a bit boring actually! I didn''t figure it out until we were out the front of a very nice resort I have wanted to go to in Shoal bay, North coast. (I am in Australia by the way and its SUMMER!!!)

We check into one of the nicest rooms they have!!! We had champagne waiting and choc dipped strawberries. The weather wasn''t great (it was raining a bit on the Friday)
We headed off to check the place out and end up at the Aqua Spa! The weather was too cold to go to the beach just across the road from our room, so instead we spent it soaking up in the 3 heated spas they had! (I knew I needed the swimmers, he was so surprised that I packed them, because he forgot all about that) That is why he is marrying me lol!!!

Then back to shower and head off to dinner! Dinner was really yummy! Then back to the hotel room, I haven''t had a chance to give myself a magic manicure, so I thought I would take that time to change into some god awful ugly clothes!!!!! and buff, polish and paint my nails. He sitting there going "are they dry yet?" a few times. Once they were dry I stood up and looked out the balcony frowning about the weather and hoping it will get better and I turn around to see him on his knee with the ring box opened asking to marry me!!!!!!

He really caught me by surprise which I am so thrilled about! I of course said yes!! We popped open the bubbly and he tells me that at 10.00am tomorrow monring I have a dry hydrotherapy massage and a MANICURE and pedicure booked at the spa!! (this is why I am marrying him!! He knew about the importance of a manicure) I swapped the manicure for a facial instead because my d.i.y one was ok.) I then spent the rest of the night staring at my ring!!!!

Saturday and Sunday were spent in the spa and the beach and restaurants and just being all loved up!!!! I am home now and mine and his family are going out to dinner tonight! My parents haven''t met his, so this will be a good opportunity!
