My boyfriend, Ben, had flown from North Carolina to visit for the weekend. We live in different states so we don't get to see each other more than once a month. Well on this particular day, June 15th 2007, we had decided to go visit my horse, Slicker then we were going to go into frankfort and have lunch and shop around. I was out in the pasture with my horse, brushing him and checking to make sure he didn't have any cuts or scrapes. Ben, meanwhile, was standing by the fence just staring at us. I found it quite odd but decided not to ask why he was staring so hard. A few minutes later, Ben came into the pasture and right in front of Slick, pulled the ring box out of his pants pocket, got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. I was so surprise. I started to cry as I said yes and when he got up to kiss me, Slick stuck his nose in between us. Now being a horse crazy woman that is my idea of a romantic but funny proposal.
