Holiday Surprise

Friday 29th August

Started as a normal day, woke up and had breakfast and a shower.

Jas and I decided to pop into Cloverdale shops as we picked up the rental car yesterday (Chevrolet Uplander) I grabbed a copy of Mario Kart on the Wii to bring home, awesome game and 20 quid cheaper than the UK to buy. Had a Wendy's, it was the best burger i have had so far in Canada!

Jas has been wanting to take me to dinner for a while, so as we have the Chevy, he decided it would be tonight. So i quickly got ready and we headed to White Rock. We went to a restaurant called The Boathouse. Neither of us are into fish but we had some Halibut and Chips which was lovely.

We then headed onto the pier, the tide was in so the water was right up underneath. We stopped halfway to look over at the sunset. Jas turned to me and said 'I have something to ask you' I was like 'Ok'. He then proceeded to say 'Sally Ingold, will you marry me' and got a ring out of his pocket! It was one that i had looked at a week before we flew out here. Unfortunately it was a size too small but he has already organized the right size for us to swap over when we get back, so i am not wearing the ring right now.

Obviously i said yes, but Jas didn't get on one knee!!

We got back to the house and i announced it to the rest of the family, they already knew and had Champagne ready! There was a few tears all round i think. Had to stay up until 12:30am so i could call mum and let her know! So hopefully this comes as a welcome surprise to everyone, we are both so happy :)
