the best gift EVER...really!!!


Merry Christmas everyone...a day late! Today it is raining, so I thought I'd update this a little bit. We've been keeping ourselves busy with snorkeling and eating and relaxing. I've introduced Jeff to malasadas, which are Portuguese donuts covered in sugar. And of course we've made time for shave ice! And then there's all the other goodies that the island brings. I feel like we've been eating our way through this trip, but at least the swimming and walking down the beach will help burn off some of those delicious calories! :)


And now for the main reason to update this...Most of you have already heard by now, but....


JEFF AND I ARE ENGAGED!!!

He popped the question when we went out for a walk on the beach at sunset on the 23rd, and of course I said yes. I kind of had a feeling something was up by the way he was acting so weird and wouldn't let me set my stuff down or turn around to head back toward the condos. And yes, I cried...I was crying before he even got a word out. Don't worry, the wedding won't be until after I'm finished with school. There's no way I could even fathom trying to plan a wedding with the amount of spare time I have. So, keep spring/summer of 2011 open because that's when it'll be!


Well, there's not much I could say that could top that news. We're just enjoying our time here being lazy bums. I'll probably try to get a fair amount of studying in today with the less than perfect weather, although it looks like it might be clearing up in a little bit. Hope Santa treated you well, and you had a happy holiday. Until next time, ALOHA!
