Engagement

It was July 27th, 2017- We were in Mazatlan, Mexico with family. Enjoying the sun, the beach, food and drinks. The frequent question I got right after he asked and I said 'yes', was "Did you know?" My answer every time was, no. I had thought all day he was acting weird, but what else is new. We had spoken about marriage plenty of times before and it didn't seem like it was something in our near future. Even when he got down on one knee, and asked me those four words, "Will You Marry Me?" I was suspicious, and I kept thinking to myself, "are you sure? are you really doing this?  do you know how crazy weird I am..?" I tried untying the ring from the book, failed, and still hadn't given my answer. He helped me with the ring and proceeded to ask me again. It was then when it really hit me. Holy balls! He just asked me to marry him!? I looked at him bewilderedly, like deer in the headlights and said yes. Managed to put the ring on and we embraced. Thats when I heard the cheers. Behind me were all of 40 something family members, (with some strangers who followed along) clapping. They all witnessed the most important, special day thus far of my life. Thank you to everyone who was able to be there and support us in this new adventure! I finally got my Mr. Darcy.
