Katie Claire Morrison

On Monday July 14th I woke up, much to my dismay, to a 70% chance of rain with clouds filling the sky, rain already drizzling down, and a forecast of thunderstorms by 4pm.

At about 3:15pm I received a text message from Jordan (the other guy intern and special helper of the day) that said, "Jesus must love you man! Would you look at that sun!" The clouds had parted and deceased and the set up was perfect and so it began.

Katie Claire and I had a lovely afternoon of walking through the best New York has to offer in Central Park! We eventually ended up at the boathouse where we rented a row-boat for the afternoon. Properly disguised as a celebration of being together for 20 months we had a great time exploring the lake in Central Park! After making our rounds in the lake we found ourselves in a little secluded cove and decided to dock and pull the boat up on land while we looked around at the beautiful greenery surrounding us. In the small dirt path that sat next to the water's edge laid a sideways tree that hid a treasure behind it. After stepping over the trunk Katie quickly figured out what was up with the rose petal path! We walked around the corner to a little gazebo where our friend had laid out my gifts to Katie.

The next hour was a great time together and we walked up the stairs of Wagner's Cove as a newly engaged couple!!

We found ourselves at Cherry Hill and a horse and carriage promptly picked us up and we rode throughout Central Park behind Romeo, the beautiful white steed.

What perfected the night was meeting our parents in Little Italy for dinner and sharing stories and celebration together!
