So we're off to Florida for a wonderful week of relaxation with my family. We're driving to Austin tonight and flying from there so that Brandon's sister can keep Bailey for the week. We're excited not to have to worry about the pup for a while. We go to the same place south of Tampa every year, and I love every minute of it. Brandon loves it because there's a mile-long pier out into the ocean that he can fish from while I lay out on the beach. It's so relaxing and fun to be with my family and just enjoy being with them. We just play on the beach, watch movies, eat good food, and catch up on sleep the whole time. Every night we take long walks on the beach and even have crab-finding contests. Oh I can't wait!
Two years ago TODAY (May 29, 2007) was the day that Brandon proposed to me on the beach there. It's a very special place to me. I was dying to be engaged and Brandon had just got his job in Dallas. I had become convinced that it was just never going to happen and we'd never get married, mostly because every member of my family is a mean, dirty liar. But he absolutely blew me away. I was totally shocked. His sweet family even came down to surprise me and stayed for the first couple days. His dad even videoed the whole thing, which is also so surprising that Brandon asked him to do that. I'm just so glad he did, and now you can enjoy it for yourself...
Oh and I finally figured out how to do a collage picture thing for my blog! It's my first, but it'll have to do for now. More updates after our week at the beach!!!

Sara, I loved this video! Ryan and I watched it and I teared up. So weird to think we didn't even know you guys then, but watching this video was so fun because we know you guys well now! Happy Proposal Anniversary!! :)
It seems like yesterday that I was sitting on you and Ally's bunkbeds trying to convince you that...yes, you will be married to Brandon someday! You were sure he was never going to propose!! :)
So thanks for making my cry in front of my kids. (Guess I shouldn't be on looking at blogs during class anyway.LOL) I loved that video the first time I watched and and loved watching it again. i'm so jealous ya'll are on the beach right now! But you so deserve it. When you come back you're going t be so super busy. Can't wait to see the house!
