Waking up in Maui, Hawaii definatley has its perks...
Going for your 30th birthday with your closest friends, Mom, and boyfriend was also a trip to remember.
I woke up freaking out to my friend, Liz, that Kevin was never going to propose. Boy was I wrong! After reassuring me that everything was going to be OK, we went shopping at 6AM (because what else do we do together, lol)
Day goes by and as a group we head to breakfast at my favorite place, The Gazebo. While part of our group waited in line, the rest of us hung out by the ocean to take in it's beauty. Then there's me, on my phone, trolling Facebook.
Little did I know, Kevin had a plan.
Hearing my friends insist on taking a picture, I finally looked up but not to what I expected. In front of me was Kevin, standing there with a ring box and the BIGGEST grin on his face.
I DIED. And after tearing up and mumbling incoherent words, he stands next to me and holds me close while looking out at the ocean. Thru his tears and laughs, he shared with me how much he loves me, and how his life had changed because of me. Realizing this was a real moment, and that I had been silly that moring, I said YES, freaked out, lost my breath, and jumped up and down. In the background we heard screams of joy and applause, and a million pictures were taken. My poor Mom didn't see this moment coming either, and ran over to share in the excitment.
Best. Day. Ever. |
