We have conflicting stories on the first time we "officially" met but we both agree it was at a high school swim meet. He says his best friend Michael introduced us so that Michael could focus on his race, ha! While I believe I saw this cute guy sitting on some bleachers allll by himself and I had to climb up there to meet him.

After coming home early from the mountains, Tyler asked to cook me a nice dinner for New Years Eve. I suspected n o t h i n g. We cooked and danced in the kitchen and enjoyed a nice bottle of Italian red wine by the Christmas tree. Before I knew it he was directing the conversation to our future and slowly sliding off the couch to his knee with my Grandmom's heirloom ring in a little box. Tears were shed, Facetime calls were made and then we rushed over to my parents house to ring in the New Year as an engaged couple with my family.
