The Start Of Everything

First conversation, in July of 2021

While working together at Blattner Energy, we were partnered up. To prevent mental boredom in our physical job, Sawyer asked me what my favorite butcher cut of a shopping cart was. And as a weird person myself, I consided and answered. I (the bride) don't remember my reply, but I remember comparing the different cuts of a shopping cart and what they would consist of. We eventually ended up talking about DND, and Sawyers humblewoods server he runs. This led to us getting along so well that the crew secretly shipped us(thought we would be a great couple), and getting into all sorts of shenanigans.

The Proposal

March 20th 2022

The day started off with us going bowling with Celsie, Magee, Kasey, Sawyer and I. There was some playful teasing in there that almost led me to let Sawyer sleep on the couch that night. We even switched to a different bowling alley because we didn't want to be around the children's birthday party. As I am not from Green Bay i could not tell you the difference in the building other than the location, and as i was not driving, i probably couldn't even tell you that. Even while supervised I was clumsy, and fell, or flung the ball funny because my finger got stuck. We probably played about 3 or 4 games before food was a must. We went to Sushi lovers in Green Bay, a place Celsie and Sawyer swear by. We had our favorite waitress Dorey. I got sake with my food because I was having fun, but for some reason Sawyer was trying to limit my intake of it. Even Celsie was confused by this, and tried to stop him. Sawyer won, I limited my drinking for the night, I still have the other half of the bottle I'm my refrigerator. After we filled up on food and left, we dropped off Kasey at her car, at her parents house and headed home. Kasey happened to "forget something" at our house, and came over. I walked my dog as he had been left alone for most of the afternoon, and came back to Sawyer putting on a video of a fireplace on YouTube on the TV. I make fun of my sister for being dense, and let this happen and have no clue. He even asked me that morning what my favorite flavor of ring pop was. For context, I said some time after we started dating that if he wanted he could propose with a ring pop. He had us all sit in the livingroom for story time. Me think he's going to tell a story to Celsie, called the story of a girl on the third floor, internally facepalms for it. He literally gets to shake the person for the story, for those who don't know of it. So when he asks me to join him infront of the TV I was not surprised. When I get up there I turn facing Celsie, Magee, and Kasey, saying "oh f*ck this story time." Sawyer leads me to face him, and starts talking. it was not the story of the girl on the third floor, but the start of his proposal. He pulls a ring pop from his back pocket, opens it, and then gets on his knee to propose. I don't know how it works, but I was so happy I was threatening to kill him already. I still have the wrapping and the plastic part of the ring pop still.
