When we finally arrived at the Plaza, we didn't go to the restaurant. We went straight for the horse & carriages & took a little ride through the Christmas lit Plaza. It was beautiful! Aaron had prearranged for the driver to stop in front of a fountain so he could pop the question. He was planning for a secluded, private fountain....but the driver stopped right in front of the Cheesecake Factory where we had MANY curious onlookers watching as Aaron proposed. I, of course, said yes & then we finished our ride....while our driver proceeded to talk to us, rather than let us have our little private moment.
After the carriage ride, his parents met up with us & his mom had a dozen roses (well, eleven, since one head popped off in her car) for me. I said it was ok, because we had been dating for exactly 11 months, so that made it more significant :)
Here's a pic from the night he proposed.

Oh my gosh, good story! I "think" I know the day that Chris proposed to me but I'm not positive! how sad! You guys look like you are twelve!
You guys are going to have to celebrate BIG time for your 10th anniversary.
I think we may have been about 12! j/k 18 months to plan a trip, if we can convince grandparents to watch a 4 1/2, 3 & 1 year old :)
WOW! What 10 years has brought to your lives! Who knew Aaron was such a romantic:-)
