Just Returned & had a Major Surprise

[Goofy4Eeyore]

DFi & I just returned Friday night from a wonderful first trip to the World. All I can say is that we loved it there and can't wait to return. It was very hard for us to leave in fact We were there from 9/11 to 9/16 and stayed at POFQ. The weather was wonderful--Mid 90s all week with no rain. The crowds were light. The most we ever waited for a ride was 5 minutes. On 9/12 we did Animal Kingdom, 9/13 was Epcot, 9/14 was Magic Kingdom and 9/15 was Disney Studios. We enjoyed everything there but we both agreed that Tower of Terror is the best My major surprise came at Magic Kingdom right in front of the castle. My DFi asked me to marry him. We had already been talking about marriage but he made it official with actually asking me and giving me the ring, which is really beautiful. We had originally discussed being married in Vegas but now, since he was so impressed by Disney, he want's to get married there.
I hated to leave but I know I'll be going back so I have that to look forward to. I took around 900 pictures and as soon as I sort through them I will probably post some. If you have any questions I will be glad to answer them.

Thanks for reading. I just had to tell everyone

Thank you everyone for the kind words I am just so happy right now. I can't stop looking at the ring. He had it custom made for me. It's platinum with diamonds and sapphires. It's so beautiful. I will try to post a picture of it.

As far as eating goes, I didn't eat to much. I know, I should've been pigging out on all the good stuff there but I didn't. I did eat at Cosmic Rays, Boatrights (POR), food court at POFQ, Rainforest Cafe, Earl of Sandwich and a few other places that I can't think of at the momnet. I also got to try a Dole Float which was very good.

WOW, that's some Pixie dust!

I think you should go on a WDW land/sea package cruise for your honeymoon.

I think it is so cute seeing people in the park with the minnie and mickey bride and groom hats.

Dy DH and I are going in December to celebrate our 50 and 50+ birthdays and then we are talking about going in may 2006 for our 30th wedding anniversity.

I think sharing things like WDW add magic to any partnership
