This bench might look very ordinary but it has very special meaning to Matthew and I. I grew up in Portland a couple blocks away from Mt. Park. Matthew and I would walk up to the top of Mt. Park and sit on this bench and look out over the city of Portland. Mt. Park has a 360 degree view of the city. This bench has seen many first for us. Many conversations about life and love have been discussed while sitting on this bench. Our first kiss was on this bench and this is where my wonderful husband got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. It had been a while since we visited our bench, so the other night we stopped on our way home from the OR Christmas Party. It was terribly cold up there so we shared a quick kiss and viewed the city and then headed back to the car. We love this bench!!!

Too bad you guys couldn't move that bench into your back yard!! That's awesome that it has so much meaning! Love it! You should secretly carve your initials into it- he he!
