Upon waking on March 7, 2009 in Atlanta and seeing cloudy skies and drizzle, my excitement faltered for only a moment. Matthew and I were heading to Greenville today and the weather website promised sunshine and 10 degrees warmer than the present location. Greenville is a special city for the two of us, since he lived in Charlotte and I was in Atlanta, the midway point in SC was/is important and has played a key role in the growth of our relationship. Well, yesterday, upon arriving at one of our favorite parks in the city, Matthew produced a chronological photo album containing our history through photos, verses and poems, starting with keeping our focus on the Lord and ending with an empty page where he wanted to add photos from the day. And of course, his plan was for the photos to be of our engagement! Yes, he asked me to marry him, and I answered, "Yes, I will." 
We later dined at one of our favorite spots, Addy's, a Dutch restaurant, which we both highly recommend.
Nice, cozy ambience. Matthew pointed out we should get engaged more often because people gave us free stuff. :)
And the future Mr. and Mrs. Matthew Keith Anderson.
