the proposal

We love travelling and if we get to save enough money we usually do a big holiday once a year. So last year in August we went to Thailand. After travelling around we spent one week at an amazing hotel in Koh Samui. Before the holiday I often thought about IT, would he ask me (finally) or not??? I had no clue... He's perfect in keeping secrets! We had often talked about getting married and having a family, there was no doubt for the both of us. I just didn't know, when he would pop the question. So we stayed at this beautiful hotel, had romantic evenings and just nothing happened. We knew that the hotel offered private candlelight dinners at the beach and we thought this would be the best way to have a beautiful last evening of our trip. We had then seen couples having their beach dinner and we though it was not top, cause they were kind of exposed and all the people would stare at them when passing by. We then discovered, that we could also have dinner at one of the small huts just by the pool and that this would offer much more privacy. So FI booked the romantic candle light dinner at the hut for the last evening. I was a bit nervous and was very much attentive to find out if FI was different or nervous or anything. But he was just the same as always.. I thought, ok this was it. Next time :-)

So we arrived at the pool in the evening and the little hut was all decorated with the most beautiful flowers, all orchids, and tons of candles, it was amazing and SO romantic! We ordered dinner and a glass of champagne. We toasted and suddenly FI became serious, he went down on his knee and I think I started crying and shaking before he had said anything! OMG! It was just PERFECT! He said how much he loved me, that everything was perfect with me, how happy he was and that he wanted this to be going on for the rest of our lives. He asked and I said YES! It was the perfect setting for the perfect proposal and I couldn't be more happy. We had an amazing romantic evening and I kept saying: How could you stay so calm during the whole holiday? He just smiled and said I love you.
