The Proposal

On a November day in 2003, Kolby and Badin escaped for a weekend in the North Carolina mountains. While on a hike, one Kolby admits she hadn’t been eager to take, Badin completely surprised her with a proposal. The unexpected moment quickly became one of her most cherished memories, filling her with pure joy.
