We got engaged on a beautiful summer evening in August. (August 2nd to be exact!) We were spending time at Mert's brothers house on Eden Lake, Michigan. Mert wanted to take his canoe out for a joy ride around the lake so I grabbed two Miller High Lifes and joined him. We set off paddling along- taking in the sites. We both paddled slowly, exhausted from the full day of swimming and sunning. We turned the corner of the lake and there was a picture perfect site. Lily pads were blooming everywhere you looked. It was absolutely beautiful. All I wanted was my camera!! We continued to paddle and then......... the sweet talk started and Mert asked me to marry him! It was amazing- and a complete surprise. I loved not knowing that a normal summer evening turned out to be the best day of my life. I cried and laughed and almost went overboard! And so we paddled in as a newly engaged couple!
