Alex was a regular at a bar where I had just started working. One day he saw me zip by to get something out of the kitchen, and he noticed the "New Girl". He said to his friend "WHO IS THAT?!?!" Haha. He was determined to get to know me, but had to get the courage to do so. Almost a year later, he approached me and said he wanted to get to know me. I told him my schedule and he proceeded to come visit me regularly. I gave him a chance and here we are! Getting MARRIED!
It was a Friday afternoon and I just got home from work. Alex asked me if I wanted to go for a walk. I was a little concerned about the weather since it looked like it was about to rain. He said we were good to go . We grabbed Aiden, Winston and headed out! Alex wanted to check out this bridge that was off the green way. We walked over to it, I grabbed the dog from him and continued pushing Aiden. I was talking about the private property it was connected to and I turned around to start walking back. While I was in my own world looking around as I was passing Alex, I felt him grab my arm to get me to turn around and the next thing I know, he is down on one knee opening a ring box!!!! I was totally caught off guard. HE GOT ME! He was able to surprise me during these COVID times of not being able to do much. He asked me to be his forever and I said YES!
