After a few of our good friends had done some really good brainstorming they invited us to go out to eat for Mexican. I had just moved back from LMU after graduating the nursing program and started my first nursing job. They asked me to go out to eat with them, and I thought what could it hurt. Looking back it was one of the best decisions we made. Even though Brandon didn't say two words to me, he paid for my dinner, and then didn't talk to me for about a week! I finally got the courage to ask for his number to say thank you and we never looked back from there!
On a beautiful June day in Washington D.C. we were on a bus tour exploring the city. Little did I know what was to come next! Brandon was acting a little strange and more quiet than usual but I thought he just wasn't enjoying the history and atmosphere as much as I did! Next thing I know we finally make it to the Lincoln Memorial (one of my favorite places in the whole world). We walked up the 87 steps and I was enjoying the view. Brandon kept asking me to go to the side of the building where there is absolutely nothing, finally after being stubborn he talked me into it. He got on one knee and I heard *click click click* he had hired an incredible photographer to capture the whole moment! I said YES!
