MikeyA53 Posted October 5, 2010 Author #327 Share Posted October 5, 2010 (edited) Today is the big day, proposing to Tracy tonight in the Scarlett’s Steakhouse. The funny thing is ‘it’s the first time I will be proposing to her’. Back 17.5 years ago I told her lets go shopping for your ring and that was the extent of the proposal. We had talked about marriage and I assumed it was a done deal. When I said " lets go shopping for your ring" she responded " are you asking me to marry you" the big dummy answered " I guess so". Not very romantic and every once in a while she reminds me of it, even Mitchel has told me a couple of times " Dad, why didn’t you do it right, get down on one knee". Well tonight I’m finally going to do it right. We got at about 08:00 a.m and spent some time on the balcony, looking at an approaching island ( Mahogany Bay). Went to the gym, I did 4 miles combined on the treadmill and elliptical machine and Tracy did 5 miles on the treadmill. Unfortunately, even with all the weights/cardio training we still gained weight. :( Ordered room service for breakfast and went on the balcony to enjoy the food/view Mahagony Bay in the distance Rainbow .

whendoweleave? Posted October 5, 2010 #328 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Getting so anxious now that the proposal is drawing near..... My hubby's proposal was similar to yours, so it renews my hope that MAYBE there's a chance for some little sliver of romance to develop in this man as he ages....lol! :p Have been LOVING this review! What a dream trip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
