We're getting married!

Trevor told me to pack my bags for a sunny and warm beach vacation. For those of you who know me well, anxiety for packing for the unknown immediately set in without a hint of what the trip was about, but I packed a big suitcase (of course, it’s me after all), and when we got to the airport, I was told we were heading to Newport Beach, California! Southern California has always been one of our favorite places to travel together, and Trevor knew I dreamed of either getting engaged or married on a beach! When we landed in sunny OC, our first stop was In-N-Out Burger…if you know us, our obsession is real. After leaving lunch, we went to check into our hotel and pulled into a beautiful villa at The Resort at Pelican Hill overlooking the golf course and ocean. We explored the beautiful resort and soon headed out for a wonderful Mexican (my favorite) dinner at Javier’s in Newport Beach. I’m thinking, this is it, he's going to propose! This was the perfect day and the perfect night to get engaged! Nope...I was wrong. When we woke up the next day, we cruised the coast for a while in the convertible Trevor rented for the weekend, then headed to Balboa Island to ride beach cruiser bikes along the boardwalk, then met one of my best friends from college, Amanda, for lunch. She quickly had to leave after lunch to head to LAX to catch a flight out for work…or so she said. That evening, we went to the Hotel Montage in Laguna Beach for a beautiful dinner overlooking the ocean. After dinner, Trevor suggested we go for a walk around the resort. He stopped at this point overlooking the ocean and got down on one knee. Just then Amanda jumped out of the bushes and started taking pictures. We are so glad she was there to capture our special moment! What an amazing surprise Trevor and Amanda pulled off! With tears in both of our eyes, I happily said, 'YES'!
