Nick and I met 3 years ago on Tinder of all places! He told me that after our first date he called his mother Carol to tell her about how the date went. When Carol answered she immediately asked "What's wrong with this one?" Knowing how picky he was. He told her "Nothing I'm going to marry this one!" He went on and on about how similar we are and how much we laughed. I of course took to long to get ready and messed up the plans he had. Nicholas planned this proposal out a long time ago. Who would of thought we would have fell in love, start a family and now getting married! Both of us are beyond happy to combine our families and personally I'm blessed to be gaining such a sweet and caring step-son!
We planned a Winery Bus Tour for his birthday in June and had all our close friends attending. Apparently I on the other hand had something else planned. Unfortunately while I was at work the night before and had a near syncopal episode and rushed out of a patients room. I checked myself in to the ER, got admitted to the ICU and well, long story short had to get a pacemaker placed the next day! So we decided just to move the bus tour to my 30th birthday instead. Carol was coming over to be with Jaycee while we finished getting ready. Nick was running all over the house franticly trying to get everything ready as I was taking my time doing my makeup. We meet up with our friends, gave kisses and said goodbye to the baby, loaded the bus up and off we went. We arrived at Chandler Hill Winery and got our first drink. Nick said to me "Let's go take a group photo." While he made the toast to our friends being there, my birthday THEN TO US! He got down on his knee and asked me to be his forever!! I was so nervous and couldn't stop shaking I spilt the majority of my wine in shock! Everyone was in on it and were taking pictures and recording the whole thing! I have uploaded the video if you all would like to watch! I still get butterflies just thinking about the 2nd best day of my life. ( Jaycees birth took 1st place!)
