Our engagement is still a dream and sometimes I have to pinch myself to realize it really happened! It was an overcast day in Florence, Italy and one of our last days of our Italian adventure. Scattered showers filled the air, but I had mentioned during trip planning that I wanted to get a panoramic view of Florence from Piazzale Michelangelo. Josh anxiously carried around the ring, unbeknownst to me, in his pocket during our entire trip just waiting for the perfect moment. Although clouds still loomed over this Tuscan paradise, Josh suggested we still get in that hike up to the plaza. Midway through our walk the sun made its glorious appearance and all was well, but it was certainly about to get even better! When we reached the top of our vantage point there was an Italian man playing acoustic guitar and a very small crowd of people soaking in the view. Josh and I took some pictures and meandered around until taking a spot on a quiet bench in the corner. Josh knew the time was now! He pulled out the box, opened it up, and said some sweet things through lots of happy tears. I didn't even hesitate to say "yes" to the easiest question of my life.
