This picture is of TL. {my husband} It actually tells the story of when we got engaged. He is standing right where he proposed, just a few hours before he did.
This is actually a joke. It was smoldering hot in Napa that beautiful Friday afternoon. August 29th, 2008 to be exact! So of course, he had to pose like he was freezing.
This was right when we got to our beautiful Bed & Breakfast, Wine Country Inn.
We had gone wine tasting that afternoon, and he had mentioned that he made reservations at Auberge De Soleil (a beautiful restaurant over looking Napa valley). So I was getting ready for dinner. He came into the bathroom, right after I finished doing my mascara – which ended up all over my face, of course- and told me to come out to the patio because there were two beautiful birds swimming in the fountain. He wanted me to “check them out”.
So I did.
I got out there and saw the birds (they were pretty). He was standing right next to that table and he looked at me and said “I have something to match your pretty necklace”. (He had gotten me a diamond necklace a few weeks earlier and kept telling me that he “liked my pretty necklace”)
I thought it was earrings.
Then he got down on one knee.
He looked at me with the most loving and genuine blue eyes and said…
“Tracy, I love you so much… will you marry me?”
and I said YES!
So that’s our story… here are some pictures of us from that night!
what a great story!! 🙂
What a romantic way to propose! What a beautiful location!
what a sweet engagement story!!!
