I knew Chris was going to be proposing soon since he had told me months prior that he planned on doing it before we went to California for vacation and it was now a week before we left. He told me that we would be having date night on Friday November 3rd. He said we would be going to the Disney Experience and then dinner at Clink. I was back and forth all week trying to figure out if this was the proposal night. We went to the Disney thing and then cut back across the commons and he was steering me to go back towards the Make Way For Ducklings statues, that I love. That is the moment I was positive it was coming. We got over to the duck statues and some people walked passed and Chris started to say something and then said wait and got down on one knee and after some talking pulled the ring out of his pocket and asked and I immediately said yes of course
Things to note:
1.He told me after the fact that he had had the ring since the end of August and was trying to find the right time.
2. He said he was freaking out worrying he may drop the ring out of his pocket or I would realize.
3. I have love of ducks and I think it goes back to when I was a kid and my grandparents would always read me Make Way For Ducklings and take my brothers and I into Boston to the swan boats and to see the ducks. Chris did not know the whole history so he hit it out of the park for choosing such a special place to me without even realizing.
4. Yes, I spent the rest of the night looking at it and making it sparkle and twinkle in all the lights.
