My boyfriend Tanner popped the question this weekend; it was such a fun surprise and the most perfect day! We brought sandwiches from Zanottos to one of our favorite college spots (the Rose Gardens) for a picnic. He surprised me with an "early birthday present," Christian Louboutins! Oh my goodness. Caught up in the moment of trying them on, I didn't even realize he was down on one knee with a ring. I of course cried (typical) but was overwhelmed with excitement. We ended the day with pizza at A16 and a champagne toast at Top of the Mark.
I wouldn't have changed anything about today except for my purple nail polish, ha!

Congrats! Love the ring, and those shoes, I love them, we can be shoes twinsies.
And I want to see a close up of the ring. Looks like maybe a cushion?
That's very charming. If I said "Christian Louboutins" in front of my boyfriend, he would be like who's Christian, and what's a Louboutin?
Congrats :)
