Chad asked me to marry him a year ago today. On my porch in midtown in the sunshine.

New in 2012, we’re sharing the iBook that Chad wrote for me. You can read the whole thing here. This really should be sponsored by Kleenex, ’cause you can’t not cry.

[side note about the iBook – woven throughout the book are emails that I sent to Chad (at his request) early last spring with proposal ideas I did/didn’t like, accompanied by diptych images. The text of those emails is the first part of each numbered segment. Chad’s part of the book follows each image. It makes more sense the farther you read.]

You can read my version of the proposal story here, and Chad’s version here. Be warned; we use a lot of words.

Anyway, I said yes and my ring is beautiful and there was lots of excitement. Thanks for sharing it with us.
