Last week my family, Adam, and I went to Disneyland. That’s right! 22 of us headed to the Happiest Place on Earth. It was perfect…perfect weather (high 70′s- low 80′s), not busy (we walked on to most rides or only had a few minutes in line before getting on), we weren’t rushed to get it all in (1 1/2 days at Disneyland, 1 1/2 days at California Adventure, a day at SeaWorld, and one to play at the beach before heading home), there were a lot of characters out and about, and everyone was there…minus little Mia Mia.
Plus, to top all that off, Adam and I got ENGAGED! Story time! Grab your little carpet squares and have a seat. Just as the park closed, we were all walking out to go to Downtown Disney to shop a little bit. Adam said, “Let’s go over and check that out,” and pointed to a statue with a light on it. I told my parents we would catch up with them and we left. He took me to the side of the castle to see Snow White’s wishing well. Adam thought it would be fun to make wishes, so I pulled out pennies for both of us. I made my wish and threw it in. He made his and threw it in. Just as the penny hit the water we heard “DING! DONG!” Then Snow White started singing “I’m wishing! For the one I love, to find me today” PERFECT TIMING! We walked over to the cute little bridge to listen to the rest of the song. Afterward, Adam asked me what I wished for. I wasn’t going to tell him that I wished he would ask me to marry him some day soon so I said, “I wished for a dalmatian.” He knew I didn’t really wish for that but I wasn’t going to tell him the truth. Then he said, “I wished you would marry me.” I replied saying, “I would marry you. I have told you that before.” He said “So you will?” “Yeah! we have talked about this before. I have told you I would marry you.” He said, “Just say yes!” I couldn’t understand why he kept pushing this, “Yes.” He reached into his pocket and said, “Good. Then I can give you this,” and he pulled out the ring. I looked at it and said in my dumb blond way, “Wait! Are you asking me to marry you?” ha ha I didn’t get it! On our way to Downtown Disney to share the new with my parents I said to Adam, “Guess that is what happens when you ask a blond to marry you.” ha ha When we told my parents, my mom starting screaming and my dad started crying. Cute huh!?
So to sum things up….Disneyland was great and I brought home the best souvenir ever!
