The proposal took place on January 29th, 2012 near her house. We went to a local reserve, Partridge Run Game Management Area, located in Berne, Ny. There is a trail that leads down through the woods and comes out on a small pond. We had originally planned on taking two of her families dogs (3 Jack Russel crosses and 1 Black lab mix) but when the other two saw the leashes, we ended up taking all four of the dogs. What I had told her was that I thought it would be a good spot to tire out all 4 of them, but in reality we were going so that I could propose.
The trail was a little slick in spots due to the snow that had not melted yet and some spots that were icy. So we were slipping down the trail but it was fun and pretty walk. When we got to the bottom of the trail, we took a short break. It was then, near the pond, that I got on one knee and asked her to turn around (she had been watching the dogs play). When she turned around I asked her if she would want to spend her life with me.
She said yes. :)
