She was from California. He was from North Dakota. But somehow on a summer afternoon in Grand Forks, they met in a brewery over Scotch Eggs. He liked her smile, she liked his beard and for the rest of the summer Matt spent his time showing Allison all North Dakota had to offer. Days were filled with cheese curds, poutine, motorcycle rides through farms, breweries, and Allison's favorite DOT'S PRETZELS! Both of them remarked how time seemed to slow down when they were together. A week felt like a month and a month felt like a year. So it was to no one's surprise when Allison did what she has been talking about doing for years, and moved out to North Dakota. Now with her family close by, the man of her dreams and her dog, Matt and Allison decided to take the plunge! Matt proposed on Christmas morning and the rest is history!
