Bobby and I meet in Colorado at my cousin's wedding. I lived in Florida and he lived there in Colorado, so we just stayed in contact for a year, until I went to Colorado and stole him. I brought him back to Florida and we've been together ever since. We took our first cruise in December 2007. He told me he was taking me on a cruise for my birthday. The night of the Captain's dinner, we got all dressed up and went up to the top deck to watch the sun set before dinner. It was a bit windy so we went up to the 360 degree lounge. It was a circular lounge with windows from floor to ceiling, all around. It was the perfect place to watch the sunset. We stood there only for a few moments until Bobby said "Oh look, my shoe is untied" . He bent down and when I looked down at him he was holding a ring. It is a beautiful ruby ring that had belonged to his Grandmother. I burst into tears before he had a chance to say anything. His reply was "so I guess that's a yes".

We are getting married aboard the Carnival Sensation cruise ship on March 14, 2010. We thought it would be appropriate to get married on another cruise.
