After weeks of planning and secrecy, Anthony pulled off a very successful proposal to Sami: The Rowen and Schreiner Families traveled to Queenstown, Maryland for their annual Summer trip and the families decided to take a Saturday afternoon walk around the lovely Chesapeake Bay Nature Reserve nearby. The trail was full of bunnies (and bugs) and was one of the first places that the Rowens and the Schreiners had visited all together while spending a weekend in Queenstown five years ago. Anthony had asked Sami to pose for a picture on one of the docks - which Sami was not keen on since she hadn’t put much effort into her appearance that day. Bridesmaid Maria Rowen was on the scene and ready to take the “picture.” Sami began to walk away once Maria indicated she “got a few good ones,” but before Sami could walk too far, Anthony pulled her back and knelt to the ground. He began to tell her how important she was to him and how much he loved her. He asked her to marry him. Sami was speechless and could only say “Oh my gosh, are you being serious,” with a huge smile on her face. After confirming Anthonys sincerity, Sami excitedly nodded yes and Anthony, very full of relief, confirmed to the spectators (Mike, Lori, Jason, David and Meri) that were standing further away that he had “got the thumbs up!” To acknowledge the newly engaged Sami and Anthony, a loud response came from Man of Honor, Jason Schreiner - “Finally!”
