Engaged! WOOT!

Well it's official...I am ENGAGED! WOOOT WOOOT WOOOT! I actually cannot remember a time in my life when I have been HAPPIER than I am now! Seriously I have had my head in the CLOUDS since Friday and I CANNOT stop staring at my ring! It is the MOST BEAUTIFUL RING I HAVE EVER SEEN! I tell you...that man of mine... he sure is AMAZING!

 So here is the story....

We went out to a place called Toula restaurant on the 38th floor of the Weston Hotel with an amazing view of Toronto. I thought we were going out as a surprise for my mom's birthday- she fully played along asking where we were going to dinner.

"Are we going up the CN tower? Are we eating on Captain Jack's boat?"

And there I was in the back seat laughing at her ...little did I know that the joke was on me. Ha ha. She knew ALL along where we were going...:)

  We had a three course meal (the last course was dessert...and I have to say creme brulee is the absolute BEST THING I HAVE EVER EATEN) and then near the end the waiter asked us about our food and then brought us these "complimentary" tickets and he said every night they randomly choose a table to go on a cruise and we had been chosen tonight so if we weren't busy at eight then it was just up the street. I seriously thought we were the LUCKIEST people in the restuarant ! My Dad and Jonny went to the yacht to check it out and see if it was "safe" while my mom and I shopped at some little shops. They came back and said it was PROBABLY "OK" to go on ;). My parents had just come back from a 10 day cruise so I STILL did NOT clue in when they said ...we aren't going to come because we really don't feel like getting on a boat again. So Jonny and I got on the boat. I thought we had won the DEAL of a LIFETIME! lol. Little did I know that Jonny had MADE the tickets himself and asked for a good "actor" to present them to us!! I tell you ...those were some REAL looking tickets. They even had the little dotted line to rip off the bottom half of the ticket which we gave to the boat driver. The boat driver totally played it up and said "OH WOW! THE LUCKY WINNERS!" ....yup I still didn't clue in.  lol The first twenty minutes were spent sight seeing around Toronto and then the wife of the driver said "we set up something special tonight so you can come on down" So we went downstairs and there was a table set up and rose petals and cheesecake and sparkling juice and a huge bouquet of my favourite flowers (Jonny had it ALL delivered).Somehow  I STILL did not clue in and the lady left and I said "wow...they sure do A GOOD JOB on this free boat ride!!!" And then I asked Jonny..."AREN'T YOU GONNA CUT THE CAKE?"
(I have a slight obsession with cheesecake...if I hadn't seen the cheesecake first and ACTUALLY noticed that the bouquet of flowers happened to be some of my favourites then I may have clued in. But unfortunately when my mind goes to food...there is NO coming back!!!!!! ha ha ha) and then he got down on one knee and asked me to marry him :) I said "of course!"


....and that's the story! I did not suspect it at all! My mom asked me after "you really didn't suspect a THING?" and I said ...."If I suspected it would I have no mascara on and my hair in a ponytail?" lol....oh well. At least I was wearing a dress ! :)! ha ha ha!



Might I add that I am the absolute happiest girl in the WORLD RIGHT NOW? I hope this feeling never goes away!



I love love love my Jonny!
