Our first date was to go see fireworks. The date went off with a bang! We continued with weekend dates for 3 months. On October 3, 2015 we attended a day trip out to Armstrong Woods in Guerneville, CA. Out under the huge redwood trees is where Eric asked if I would officially be his girlfriend! I of course said yes, actually, I think my response was "About time!" Fast forward to May of 2022, little did I know I would be saying "yes" to Eric again, but this time while he was down on one knee asking me to be his wife! And without hesitation, with tears in my eyes, nodding my head yes, he slipped that beautiful ring on my finger and I was his fiance!
