We planned an amazing trip to North Carolina for New Years Eve, what I thought would be just the two of us. On our way up the mountain to Craggy Pinacle we get stopped and told that the parkway was shut down due to weather. That was attempt one at proposal. He had been wanting to take me there for so long and he secretly planned for my best friend and her husband to sneak up behind us and take photos. We got to our mountain house we were staying at and I was surprised at the door by my best friend and her husband! They drove up “to spend New Years Eve with us!” On New Years Eve on our way back from dinner we stopped at a beautiful lit up hiking trail on our way up the mountain where we were staying. I thought, “I dont want to hike in this freezing weather!” The walk was beautiful with all of the twinkling lights and a little area you could sit with a waterwheel. As I was looking out over the water I turned around and Brooks was on one knee, as my best friend Shawntell and her husband Jason were taking photos. Come to find out plan “B” was to propose to me at The Biltmore house, but Jason and Shawntell couldnt get tickets with us. Im so glad Brooks has the patience of JOAB! One of the many reasons I love him so!
