I'm engaged

I thought I would share real quick for those who didn't hear my story. We just got back from the Bahamas tonight.  We had an awesome time and the weather was great.  I didn't want to leave. So before I go to bed here is the story:
We had dinner reservation Wednesday night at a really nice restaurant but we always do a "date night" thing when we go down there. Before he said lets walk through the Cloisters our favorite garden right next to our timeshare. As we were leaving I asked a few college kids who were there to come take our picture. They did and then FI asked one to use his camera, after one shot he one more please... as he said one more he got on his knees and pulled out the ring. I didn't know what was going on until he was down on one knee I also didn't know why one of the other college girls was going OMG. Luckily the girl taking the pics kept taking pics of him proposing and my reaction. One is on FI's FB page too. His mom brought down the ring with her when she came down the week before. I was nonstop crying and shaking the whole time.  The ring is so incredibly perfect. I am so happy and so lucky.

    YAY! I'm so so happy for you!  I love your story!  

    Your ring looks beautiful!  What is your stone?  It looks almost purple from that shot.

    BF can't really dance, we've always said we wanted to take ballroom dance classes together so this may be the best time.

    Congratulations! Your story is so sweet! How fortuitous that those college students were right there and had the wits to keep on taking pictures while your fiance got down on one knee!

    I actually didn't think it would happen then, we planned the vacation so last minute and there has been so much going on with the home buying...

    It was so perfect it was worth the wait.
