I know that as a fellow blogger that I should have my camera with me at all times but I didn't take it this time. I will try to do better next time.
So last night Ryan calls me and tells me that his company has an extra room at this hotel in Laguna Beach at the Surf and Sand. His company had customers fly in for meetings and their happened to be extra rooms. Of course we took one. This hotel was beautiful. It was right on the sand so you heard the waves crashing all day and all night long. Ryan was already there for meetings and I had to pack for me and my 3 girls. I was sweating by the time I was done packing. But let me tell you, it was so worth it. We woke up this morning and went to breakfast. Then Ryan worked in the room and we went swimming. We showed the girls where Ryan proposed to me. That was really fun to show them. Mckenna got down on one knee and tried to act it out. But then I had to tell her that her dad didn't get on one knee. His excuse was that we were on the dirt and he didn't want to get dirty. Whatever! No just kidding. He proposed on the cliffs of Laguna Beach. It was beautiful. Ok, back to the story. We went shopping to get a belt for Ryan because I for got to bring his. It is hard to remember everything. I usually have a list and I had no time to make one. So we went to Fashion Island we got his belt and me a ring. My wedding finger was feeling naked. If you haven't kept up on my blog, go the post titled "What a Morning".
When we returned to the hotel, Ryan had to get ready for his dinner meeting and so I took the girls swimming again. They loved it. Then we ate at the restaurant in the hotel. It was awesome because we were right on the sand and the ocean was so close. Then we headed home. What a wonderful day. The girls and I were talking about it on the way home and Mckenna said that it felt like we were there more than one day. She said that it was the best day ever. I agreed with her. The next time we have the best day ever, I hope I remember my camera.

That is a beautiful ring. I hope this one works better for you than the last one.
I want you to post a picture of your ring. PLEASE!!
Isn't it great when you don't have to spend buckoo bucks to have the best time ever. How fun for you and your family.
I'm jealous! I would drop everything for the chance of a room on the beach. Gorgeous! Ya, and shame on you for not having a camera. You must not be a REAL blogger then. :) Let's see the new ring.
LOVE that story!!!! I can just see your girls.....
Steph, it is so good to hear from you, your girls are darling. I don't know much about girls as you can see, but boys are pretty great. Tell Ryan Hello and keep in touch.
