 For those of you that don’t know, Nathan is quite the romantic. He was insistent that he surprise me when he popped the question; which is hard to do when you are anticipating it with his every move. :) He had asked me to dinner in Old Town on a Saturday night and we ended up at The Wharf, which is an amazing seafood restaurant. He quickly shot down any thoughts of this being “the night” he would ask by telling me he still wanted to look at engagement rings the next day. I realized then that this was just another date night, and put aside any notion that he might ask at dinner. After, we had fun bar hopping down King Street and ended up in front of the Christmas Attic (a store I admire for it’s window displays, and coincidentally where we had our first kiss!). Noticing the significance of the store, I was about to remind him of our date but was pleasantly surprised to find he knew all along. He distracted me with a kiss as he slipped a ring on my finger, and all of a sudden a flood of emotions hit me. Not only had he succeeded in surprising me, I was also awed by his romantic planning. Of course I said YES!!! Who wouldn’t with a proposal like that? I am so blessed to have Nathan in my life, and so appreciative of all the thoughtful things he does.
