June 3rd, 2023 had finally arrived. Sam had been planning the BIG question for quite sometime. While enjoying a family vacation in Oahu, HI, a helicopter ride was ready for take off from Turtle Bay. Involved in the planning was Sam’s sister Kendall and Aubrey’s niece Lyric. The engagement ring was hidden and slipped to the pilot. Aubrey love’s beautiful views and the hope was for her to be distracted. They flew over Kaliuwa‘a (Sacred Falls), Ko‘olau Mountains, Kāne‘ohe Bay, Famous North Shore surf breaks, and Pearl Harbor. After seeing aerial views of the thousand-foot waterfall, the helicopter landed on the top of the Ko’olau mountains. Aubrey was looking down at the ocean and Kua Loa Ranch. Sam dropped to a knee and mumbled out of nervousness, “Will you marry me?” Aubrey was shocked and excited and seemed to take forever to answer. She finally said “Yes!” Sam slides the ring onto the ring finger of the wrong hand! They shared a kiss and a hug, then Aubrey calls Sam a cheeseball. After taking photographs and enjoying the special moment, Kendall had to go through all the photos and edit them to make it look like the ring was on the ring finger of the left hand.
