We both were working in Infection Prevention for Michigan Medicine. A few years went by, but then one birthday celebration, a lot of text messages, and a few dinner dates later and we knew this might be something special!

2020 started out on a high note (who knew what was to come...) ! Sara proposed on New Year's Eve by sneaking the ring into her champagne glass (yes, she checked to make sure the ring would be safe!) It couldn't have gone better, Alexandra had picked out painted champagne flutes to fit the festive mood, concealing the ring until the last sip. It was the end of the night and Alexandra thought she was seeing things, but there was in fact a ring there!

It was only fair that Sara also had a proposal of her own. Alexandra ditched Sara at Pilates, feigning a late Covid meeting at work! She bought balloons and put up decorations, surprising her when she got home.
