A little over 8 years ago, after many many years of friendship Ricky decided to make us official to which we got the typical response “about time.” Through the years we’ve gone through ups and downs like any other couple, but most of them were ups. Last year we bought our first home together and I didn’t think I could get any more happy. Little did I know 14 months later that would all change. On a “birthday trip” to Asheville as he deemed it Ricky changed my life forever. Upon arrival at the Grove Park Inn we watched the end of the Masters, got cocktails and just enjoyed the breathtaking scenery. At sunset we went to check out the mountain views and it was there he dropped to one knee and proposed....I actually said yes before he got out the words will you marry me. Oh well, I wasn’t about to say no and for the next 3 days of vacation when talking to family and friends we got a lot of the same thing we’ve heard for years now...”about time” 🤷🏻♀️❤️
