Long Time No Blog

I knew it was only a matter of time before I got to busy to blog....but here we go again=) 
It has been a few (or more)amazing months for me! The most exciting  news being that Eric and I are engaged! He surprised the snot out of me on our trip to California. Memorial Day weekend we went to visit his best friend Eric and our friend Viktoria. They live in a beautiful city Sunnyvale (I still think of Sunnydale)not very far from San Fransisco.I had such an amazing time being shown around the Eric's old stomping grounds back when they worked for NASA.
On our one year anniversary we went in to San Fransisco. We went to the Wharf, The Aquarium, The Palace of Fine Arts and of course the Golden Gate Bridge.

At the Wharf with Alcatraz in the background.

Viktoria and Eric

The Aquarium had some neat exhibits and a few pools that you could pet some of the creatures. Interesting but I am told that the one in Dallas has a rain forest through out it...gotta check that out. 

The Ericz!

A Shark! It was a tiny one but we pet it.

I pet a live Starfish.

The Palace of Fine Arts.So very pretty.

Our last stop in San Francisco we went to the Golden Gate Bridge. Stopped off at the tourist picture spots and took a few nice pictures. My Eric had insisted we stopped by a less traveled tourist spot by the Batteries. I was still very unaware of his master plan. The other Eric and Viktoria made an excuse to not join us right away. Still I remained in the dark. Eric and I started traversing our way through the trails towards the edge of these cliffs facing the Golden Gate Bridge.  It was windy and cold but we found a tree to break the chill. It was a very beautiful spot and as I started to take a few pictures.I noticed Eric moving out of the corner of my eye so I turned around and he had a ring=) It was an amazing and unexpected surprise to say the least. As you can guess I said Yes. This moment will stand out in my mind from here to the end of my life.Here is the ring!

My Engagement Ring!

 I will work on keeping up with this blog thing..though I do get distracted by other such things. Now Eric and I have a wedding to plan and the rest of our lives to look forward to.What a lucky girl I am!
