Most do not know that we’ve known each other for half of our lives. We first met at Xpect Discounts as co-workers when we were teenagers and had a lot of the same friends. I had a huge crush on him (he never gave me the time of day), but I was too shy to talk to him. We lost touch for a while, until one day, over three years ago, I received a Facebook message from him... The rest is history!
We took a trip to Manhattan to witness the opening weekend of the tree lighting at Rockefeller Center. We went with some of our closest family members, who were distracting me from turning around. As soon as I turned around, there he was - on one knee. He was so nervous and so adorable. I remember thinking at that moment that I would spend the rest of my life with him.
