John arranged a fun trip to Santa Cruz for me for my 29th birthday. I was expecting to attend a brew fest on the boardwalk. He insisted that we go to Fire Fish for lunch first. He was walking unbelievably slow and was trying to distract me the whole walk down the pier. The further down the pier we got, I started to see familiar faces. Then I realized that his family and mine were at the end of the pier with their cameras READY! I knew at that moment that he was going to propose. John looked more nervous then I have ever seen him. He had an adorable speech, got down on one knee and popped the question. In complete shock, I said YES and continued to give him the wrong hand to put the ring on.
