It is a wonderful Friday and
I am pleased to share another amazing proposal story! It is such a cute story and we are lucky
enough to have a video as well. There is
something that is so touching when you see the tears of joy on video!
Chris and I were engaged May 6,
2012 on the ice after winning the Championship at the First State Broomball
tournament in Delaware. Our team was 'Del Boca Vista' from Seinfeld...we each
had a name on the back of our shirt. I was Man Hands...Chris was Mandelbaum. After
the final game, coming out champions, we were presented with the trophy on the
ice and had some pictures taken. After the first few Chris said he wanted to
take "one more". He began
rearranging us and pulled me out to the front. He got down on one knee on the
ice and asked me to marry him. He said he couldn't think of a more romantic
place for me than on the ice ...ha ha:) I was VERY surprised but it was very
fitting as we met playing broomball! Only two people knew about the
proposal beforehand...our best player who also happened to be a videographer and
our second best player who was needing some motivation going into the finals as
we were playing last year’s championship team. Chris took him aside before the
game and showed him the ring, and said if we won he would propose. In which he replied, "Dude that's a lot
of pressure!"
I love Chris and I love sports, it could not have been a more perfect engagement for me. Many people asked "what if you had lost?" It wouldn't have mattered...it would still have been one of our happiest days. My best day was our wedding on November 10, 2012! The tournament trophy was a candy dish at our wedding. Since we were lucky to have a videographer there, our video is on you tube http://www.youtube.com/watch? v=wobJPDxusEk ....'brooks pops the q'
