Pictures from the Engagment Weekend

First we went to the Oregon Coast Aquarium in Newport

They had a lot of really cool sculptures that were made out of recycled trash found in the ocean...and I even posed for some of them lol.

Then Brenna really liked the Jellyfish exhibit, and got some great pictures of them

Then we went to the otter exhibit and I started talking to this otter and he swam over to us and was looking at me...it was like an interaction between a master and a pet.  It was really cool!

This is when I started talking to him, and he swam over to where we were:

Then on the way to the hotel from the aquarium, I was eating some cheesits and scored some good luck points...not just a two still attached cheesits, but 4!!!

Then the next morning, which was Brenna's birthday, we took some pictures with her and her pink princess crown in front of various places...

At breakfast...

At the casino...(which we actually got yelled at for)(Oh yeah, and that's a Sex in the City slot machine lol)

And then at the bead store...

Then we went to the hotel room, got ready and then went to dinner.  I had the bellman lay rose petals in the room so that when we came back from dinner it looked like this...

The petals led to the balcony and into the bedroom and on the bed.  Brenna followed the pathway leading to the balcony.  Which looked like this...

I told her I had one more present for her and that she had to close her eyes.  I ran inside grabbed the ring, made sure her eyes were still closed and came back out onto the balcony, got down on one knee and asked her to marry me.  She said "Yes" and then I was all emotional and so smiley, and I opened the champagne to celebrate!

For those of you that have not seen Brenna's ring here it is...
