We met on Halloween at Sigma Alpha Epsilon's annual Halloween party. Ryan was dressed at McLovin' from the movie SuperBad and I was dressed as a beach girl. Ryan saw me dancing with my friends and asked a friend who I was. After a quick introduction, we went our separate ways. Later on that night, we made eye contact as I was walking up the stairs at the Fraternity and Ryan followed. We talked all night, danced, and exchanged numbers. The rest is history!
As we were visiting my family in Hawaii, my mom told us we were going to the beach to take our family pictures for this years Christmas card. Ryan walked me out on to the rocks at our favorite beach with my family close behind. He pointed out at the water and shouted, "Look! There's a whale!" I was so excited and scanned the water looking for it. He then tapped me on my back and I looked down to see him on one knee. I immediately said, "Yes!" And we spent the night eating good food and drinking even better champagne!
