Yeah! Engaged in Negril!!!
Yup, I said YES!! Trust me, I am SO surprised by all this, I still can't believe its real,until I look down at my sparkling ring finger! :) He did good!!! I wanted to let all my family and friends know first before I posted the news here. Well it turns out that the family all knew before it even happened because my boyfriend , wait, no, my FIANCE, haha!, had asked for my Dad's permission/blessing in advance !!
My dad gave his blessings to him, but ,with the stipulation that we wouldn't get married until i graduated from college. Btw,I'm currently a Junior in college now so we wont even be having the big wedding for at least a year and a half ,but probably more like in 2 yrs. which is fine with me. I totally agree with my dad's wishes and want to graduate first anyhow ,even if he didn't already request that , plus my mom is already freaking out with how much time she will need to plan the perfect big day haha!. Trust me, i am in no rush! I think someone here on webcast chat (Glenna maybe?) mentioned that maybe my bf would propose on this trip and i was like No Way!! Crazy! I know.
This entire trip so far has been like a dream that i don't want to ever wake from! thankfully, we are still here! It's kinda like being on a honeymoon cause we haven't done much else here besides spend all of our time together swimming, diving, eating, sunbathing, napping, dining and dancing, and romancing but it's all been so romantic, wonderful and dream like! I don't wanna wake from this! Oh we did take one trip to Mayfield Falls! Soooo incredible and fun! Loved it!
Some of you may remember me posting back in Oct. asking for suggestions to surprise my boyfriend with a romantic dinner in Negril. Since we were going to be staying at The Rockhouse, or so I thought at the time, I wanted to surprise him at a different place. After many wonderful suggestions, I ended up booking a romantic cave dinner at The Caves. I was beyond excited to be able to pull off a surprise like that for my boyfriend since he had surprised me with this amazing trip for my birthday. I wanted to make him feel extra special knowing I planned something like that without him knowing. He's the most incredible man I've ever known, besides my wonderful daddy of course. :)
Well fast forward, we arrive in Negril last week, one flight to Montego Bay, and then a quickie flight to Negril. Loved the tiny plane! The pilot was great, and showed us so much from the air! Even got to sit in the cockpit. (will post pics!)
Anyway, so we get a taxi and arrive at The Rockhouse where we are welcomed like royalty! It's just as amazing as all the pics I've ever seen on their website. Actually, its even better in person! We were shown to a villa perched on the cliff edge of the sea. The first thing I wanted to do was change into a bikini and jump into that beautiful blue green water! And , I did!!
I won't bore you all with my first reactions of the water as I'm sure it's all been described here numerous times before but it was.... ah-maz-ing!!!
Sorry, I'm not that much of a writer, so I will probably just end up letting all the pics and videos speak for me instead! Ha! I will figure out the best way to post all of them here, ( have SO many!) or maybe just link to a photo page (if that's even allowed here?), in case you all don't want to be bombarded with my vacation photos on this site!
I have the entire engagement captured on video too, tears and all,thanks to my sweet baby who never ever misses a detail, and had thankfully had it all set up ahead of time. I think I must have already watched it over and over a hundred times since! ( we got engaged on NYE!!)
Btw, We only ended up staying the first 2 nights at The Rockhouse. I thought we would be spending our entire stay there, however, my boyfriend had something else up his sleeve! Somewhere even better, and mindblowing!!!!
**So Sorry! I really don't mean to leave you all hanging, (that is, if anyone is even reading this!) but I'm still here in Negril!! and my FIANCE ( hahaha sounds so great to say that ! Love my baby!!) just woke from a nap and is starving! Plus, I'm typing all this on my phone, and my fingers are done for now! Ha!

Re: Yeah! Engaged in Negril!!!
Mozel Toff. May you have as many years of happiness as Miss G and I.
If you stay together after 40 years you'll be more in Love than when you married.
Blessing
