Will and I met at the gym during on of our 5:30am workout sessions. There was a very real something at first sight for both of us, because neither one of us was dressed to impress but still were genuinely attracted to each other. We awkwardly talked in passing for several weeks—never working out together but somehow managing to be there at the same times everyday. I noticed him, notice me, noticing him as he watched me walk to my car one dark morning, from then I knew we had to get to know more about each other. Or it could have been the workout gloves that he gave me, after noticing I didn't have any. Then finally one day he said "We should do lunch" and left it at that. Since then, there have been 2 years of never ending lunches. We’re still at the same gym and we work out together all the time.
On the day of our daughter's gender reveal, Will gave a heart warming speech in the rain. The excitement of the day was made great when I looked over and he was down on one knee. The family knew what was happening before I had a chance to process it all. I was so shocked... I didn't even know what finger the ring was supposed to go on... LOL. It was an automatic "YES," and we were engaged. We're so excited to celebrate this next chapter in our lives with you.
