We’re getting married!

Our story started way back when our parents were friends throughout high school and into adulthood. We grew up with each other and were able to hang out whenever our parents got together. We reconnected in the winter of 2015 when Tyler messaged me on Facebook with the best pick-up line ever, “hey, why does your dad have pictures of me?” We began chatting on and off over the next few months and were able to catch up on lost time. Eventually, Tyler came to my rescue and agreed to be my date to my senior prom and the rest is history. We became “official” April 29th, 2016.

Although I had been dropping hints for months, Tyler was still able to knock my socks off with our proposal. I had just worked three nights in a row overnight and was exhausted. Tyler suggested we head out to Robinette’s to grab donuts and enjoy the fall weather. I, of course, will never turn down donuts and happily obliged. We began walking along the trails and Tyler suggested we take a picture. This is where I became suspicious because he never suggests taking pictures. As I was setting up the camera and fixing my hair, I turned around and saw Tyler down on one knee and he was holding the most beautiful ring. I honestly couldn’t tell you what Tyler said during the proposal because I was in shock. We both ugly cried for a few minutes, although Tyler would never admit to that. It was so special and we were able to get celebratory donuts after! With a full heart and a full belly, I think we were both asleep by the very late hour of 7pm.
