Soon to be Mrs. Rappleye!

It is Official! I am Getting MARRIED!! To my BEST FRIEND! Richard 'DICK' Rappleye! I am way excited. the date is not set in stone though I am sure that most of you will be invited. However if you think that I may not have your address you can email it to me at w_callie@hotmail.com,

Ok so here is the story.
We planned on going out of town to the Outer Banks in North Carolina for the entire weekend. So I got everything ready to go, before and after work, and then When Dick got off work we went to the clubhouse to do some finalizing and saw that it was suppose to storm all weekend. With this news we decided to stay in Virginia after all. So we woke up in moring and went to the Beach with Our Friends Kyle and Kathleen. After a fun filled Day at the Beach! (It was really a ton of fun the waves were huge) We went to out to eat at Macaroni Grill. After that we went to the Movies and watched 'Get Smart'. (it was pretty good) and then we went home to take a nap. It was about 3:00AM when Dick woke me up and said it was time to go.

I have been begging him to let me see the sunrise across the ocean, and it was finally time to see it happen! I was stoked! So We drove to Sand Bridge beach which is a little further than Virginia Beach but it was the beach we had gone to earlier and it was really nice.

So we unpacked up our chairs, and a blanket and sat on the beach and walked on the beach and talked the way we have so many nights. We talked about everything! It was absolutely perfect. Then we were sitting in our chairs when the sun came up and we watched rise. Over the the ocean. It was gorgeous. And as the sun sat in horizon My handsome boyfriend told me how he loved me and move from his chair to his knee! pulled out my gorgeous ring and said, "Babe, will you marry me." I said, "I love you, Yes and of course" Mean while my emotions came out and I found myself in tears! I am so glad that I will be able to continue the rest of my life with the person that I love most!

I Love you DICK!!!
