Our first date was at Pala Mesa Resort in Fallbrook on a beautiful spring day. We sat outside enjoying the views of the golf course and views of each other :-) As the evening got cooler we wanted to get closer to the fire pit. Unfortunately there were no seats close by so Jim decided to move some heavy wrought iron chairs across the floor to keep me warm. He still does to this day!
On a quiet Christmas Eve Jim proposed to his "Miss Ellie" with the aid of his friend our Christmas Elf. Hidden in the tree by two new ornaments of a Bride and Groom was a beautiful engagement ring. We celebrated the night drinking champagne and celebrating with sweet Melissa and Sophie.
