The Balancing Act: Wuv, True Wuv

Three years and some months ago I went over to meet a friend at her classmates apartment to play scene it and hang out. Little did I know at the time I was walking into my future husband's apartment. My friend Amy had been trying to set us months before but I was resistant to a set up. We had met a few times previously but never spent time together. A week after hanging out I got a message from Nick inviting me over for another night of scene-it which he had arranged as an excuse to see me again. From there it was love. We had a few bumps in the road along the way but now we are engaged to be married.

As you can read below Nick and I had recently gone to Luray Caverns. Well at that time he had purchased the ring already but did not pack the ring because our initial plan was to go to a water park (not exactly a romantic proposal place). When we changed our plans to the romantic and beautiful caverns he was kicking himself. So when I was up visiting him, Nick had recreated our time at Luray Caverns by decorating his apartment to mimic the caverns using sheets, little candle lights, and the actual video of us in the chapel with the organ playing. It was very personal and thoughtful. Nick greeted me at my car with a drink and had gotten me my two favorite flowers: sunflowers and tulips!I didn't get a picture of the flowers at the time and the tulips opened up huge overnight before I took a picture.

To celebrate we went to The Melting Pot for a delicious 4 course dinner. It was lots of fun. The only downside was the steam blew in my face the whole time and only on one side of my head. So one side of my hair poofed out and the other did not. Nick found it hilarious.
