You might want to have a box of Kleenex at the ready here...

Dean Smith decided over a year ago that his girlfriend, Jennifer, was the person for him, and that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with her. However, he wanted to make the moment that he proposed absolutely perfect, and since he knows that Jen loves a good countdown, he decided that, using a whiteboard and a marker, he would ask her to marry him every day for a year. 

The catch is that she didn't know, and he compiled the whole thing into one video for her to watch as the family celebrated her birthday. She could hardly say now after all that, really.

And they say romance is dead...
