Despite being within a close proximity for years, our paths didn't cross until we met at Cal Poly Pomona. During our last year of Civil Engineering classes, our friendship grew and continued to do so after graduation. We stayed close throughout the first few years of our careers. One day during our regular lunch catch-ups it all clicked, and we realized what was right in front of us. And that was all it took!
Ethan popped the question on a beautiful hike in the Yorba Linda Redwoods under the green canopy of the trees. Michelle promptly said "YES!!!" and the two finished the day with a romantic picnic as a newly engaged couple!
Since we are both animal lovers, we knew that we needed a dog ASAP. Our sweet boy Macallan (AKA Mac) joined our family in December of 2021. See more family pics in the gallery!
