It was a cold and very special day/night. It was our 1-year anniversary. we spent the day by going to my dad’s to help him clean out his garage. Josiah had made us a reservation for a very fancy five-star restaurant called Gervasi’s Vineyard. The reservation was not until 11pm when he told me that I knew something was up. We always try and eat around 7-8 in the evenings. I got all dolled up and ready to go and as we were pulling into the place the road was lit up with lights strung around all the trees and it was beautiful. As the night went on, I was amazed by how beautiful this place was along with the amazing food and sweet waiters and waitresses. We finish up eating and Josiah asked me if I wanted to go walk around that there was a walking trail that led to a pond that was really pretty and of course I said no because it was -3 degrees outside. But I went anyways and as we walked toward the pond there were 2 swans hugging each other to keep warm. All the sudden I look down and Josiah is on one knee beside of me asking to spend the rest of his life with me. It was quite funny afterwards because he got up and his whole leg was soaked because he sunk into the ground. That’s how the countdown to our forever started.
