Lane and I met the old fashion way, he bought me drinks at our favorite bar (Porto's) in Boone. At the end of the night we got each other's numbers and loose plans to meet up again for dinner. Lane followed through and we ended up at Coyote Kitchen for our first date, after that we were inseparable.

Lane planned a picnic in the field to "look at the leaves". He included some close friends that live here in Lexington. I initially made plans to go get Mexican food but quickly cancelled when Lane said he had a "surprise" for me. We walked through the field to a NC State blanket with a basket filled with wine, chips, and queso. I turned around after seeing the picnic and there was Lane on one knee. Of course I said yes!
