Our story began April 28, 2008. Sometimes we sit back and think for a second about the astronomical odds we overcame just to meet. We both worked at an engineering company where we were formally introduced by our co-worker and good friend, Raul. We bonded over our passion for sports and the love and admiration we have for our grandparents, and in the next few months we built a really solid friendship. November 9, 2008 at 2:33 in the morning Anthony decided to obtain some "liquid courage" and gave Aileen a call. He told her exactly how he felt about her and to his surprise she felt the same way. The conversation went something like this; I like you, I like you too, but I REALLY like you, and I really like like like you, too! So, as cheesy as it sounds the rest is history!
Well, what happens in Vegas doesn't always stay in Vegas LOL. Anthony popped the question at the 107 lounge at the top of the Stratosphere overlooking the city. No joke, but we moved six different times because Anthony was looking for the perfect seating and lighting. Once he finally chose a seat he decided to move again and Aileen said, "No sit down we're not moving again!" and that's when it all happened, Anthony got on one knee and asked Aileen to be his wife. đź’Ť
