The "BIG DAY"


nICH and I at Buchart Gardens... where nICh got up enough courage to ask nICOLE to marry him.I flew up from Arizona on Mother's day weekend.I was hoping that one day of this weekend trip would be the "BIG DAY" Nich planned a whole day trip for us...we took the Victoria clipper up to Victoria BC, the whole ferry ride up to Victoria Nich was acting quite strange, little did I know the ring was in his front pocket and nICH was cotempalting what his next plan of action was... when we got to Buchart it was so crowded, the whole time nICH was looking around the gardens like he was my bodyguard and a killer was going to jump out of a bush at any moment. He was really trying to find a quiet, less crowded place to get down on one knee and not make a big scene. We walk by this gate that says "EMPLOYEES ONLY" there was path that lead down to a little lake...so of course nICH has found his perfect spot! We headed down the forbidden path and the whole time I was nervous someone was going to catch us and throw us out of the gardens. We found a little bench...nICH sat on it for about .01 seconds and then got down on one knee... and then my worries came true (kind of) a worker of Buchart Gardens found us...she starting saying "Hey you guys can't" then she looked at us, looked at the ring box, then said "did what I think happen, just happen" we both said at the same time "YES" !! She was nice enough to take some pictures of us (that we used for our wedding invitations. It was a perfect day!
