sweet thing

griffith park is a lovely little gem tucked away in los angeles. Large mature trees and meandering trails in the hills adjacent to the los feliz area of hollywood make it easy to forget you're in a major metropolitan area. Personally I find it romantic, for more reasons than one. Especially now...it is very near and dear to my heart as you will soon find out.

For my 2nd anniversary with the boy in 2008, he surprised me with a picnic in griffith park. complete with a fancy picnic basket, sparkling cider and pudding cups. He's really quite wonderful.






But then, this past weekend he one-upped himself. After a lovely trip to griffith observatory (separate post about that soon!), he pulled over onto a street within the park, got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. I said YES! of course. Griffith Park will forever be a romantic place for me.

We were far too excited to properly document the night, so all i have are some LA skyline photos from the observatory. but they're a beautiful memory nonetheless:
