This is a blog to keep our family and friends posted on all the goings on around here. Last month Chad and I became engaged. He did a wonderful job with the proposal. He told me we were going to the Woodlands Resort for a couple days of down time after school let out. We had a great room over looking the giant pool. Very Posh . The room was located on it's own private floor that you had to have a key to access. We sent the afternoon in the spa just relaxing. That night we had a lovely dinner at the resort restaurant over looking the water. During dinner a wedding was being held on the deck below us. We watched the whole parade from our table. Later we took a walk around one of the resorts lovely ponds. We stopped to take in the view. When we stopped at least 50 turtles started to make their way to the shore. I think they were hoping for a free meal. I of course wanted to go and get something to feed them but Chad had other plans. He didn't get down on one knee...I think the turtles climbing on shore threw off his proposal speech. Needless to say I was surprised. That night we had champagne and chocolate dipped strawberries waiting in our room. We are not big drinkers. We had a glass of the champagne but ate all the strawberries. The next day we went back to the spa and took a swim at the resort pool. It was a very relaxing weekend. We will keep you posted on our wedding plans
