I was in the middle of studying for my Medical Licensing Board Exam when Tony thought it was time for a much-needed break for both of us - he is currently writing his Master's Thesis. He found out that one of our favorite bands, The Hold Steady, was playing in Savannah, GA and we decided to make a long-weekend trip out of it.
He came to see me in Charleston, SC (where I go to medical school), and the first night he was in town we went to Fleet Landing, an old favorite of ours on the Charleston Waterfront. After a delicious dinner, we went for a walk through Waterfront Park and the Charleston Battery... After we were away from the crowds, Tony whispered some sweet words in my ear, and proceeded to get down on one knee!
Needless to say, I breathlessly said yes, and don't remember much else! It was the perfect surprise... And everyone was in on it except me!
After I regained my composure, we walked through Downtown Charleston to The Griffon to celebrate, and to document the historical event - our engagement date will be forever emblazoned on their infamous tavern walls!
It will be a night we remember forever - 5.24.10 - ∞
