The Proposal-July 24, 2008-Panama City Beach, FL

Adam told Wendy that we were going to the beach for Bo and Eli's engagement. (Adam and Bo work together at the Fire Department.) At the same time, Bo told Eli that they were going to the beach for our engagement. After dinner Thursday night and a trip to Wal-Mart, we went to the beach to set up for Bo and Eli's engagement while they went for a walk. The "plan" was for Bo to bring Eli back towards us and propose to her there (we had candles to light for them!) When we couldn't get the candles to light, Adam told Wendy that since Bo wouldn't be able to find us since the candles wouldn't stay lit, he would pretend to propose to show her what the pictures would have looked like. Until he pulled the ring box out of his boot and showed her the ring, Wendy still thought he was pretending...but he wasn't!! :)
