We started talking on Chris' birthday and he still considers me his best birthday gift. Our first date was at Mod Pizza on Wednesday evening, We talked all through dinner and for hours after. Pretty sure that the workers were happy when we left!

Under the cover of buying Christmas presents Chris managed to get a ring, without arising too much suspicion (he aroused a lot of suspicion). Chris suggested that we take the family to zoo lights since the kids would have a lot of fun there. Trying to find the perfect moment and location the entire night, after going through most of the zoo Chris pointed out that the gazeebo would be a great place to take some pictures together since lots of pictures were being taken. Chris handed his phone to one of the kids and asked them to take pictures and then while Whitney was distracted giving the kids directions Chris slipped the ring box out of his pocket and dropped down on one knee to ask Whitney to marry him.
