HOW WE MET

The Awkward First Date

We met when I became roommates (you know who is writing this) with Dave's grade school buddies. Dave would hang around and I thought nothing of it, until our friend Matt's birthday. We hung out at Matt's birthday and decided to go on a day date the next day. Our schedules were completely different so for us to have the day off together was rare. We went on a lunch date for sushi and sake, then to secret beach. It was the most awkward date ever. He was persistent and I shacked it up to a first date. He kept offering to let Sancho (my dog) out while I would work long shifts which of course pulled on my heart strings a bit. A week or so goes by and after a long day at work I came home to surprise flowers in my room (apparently my roommates let him in), and then I knew I had someone special.

THE PROPOSAL

AIR BNB PROPOSAL

We went to visit Dave's dad and my aunt in NC like we do (or try to) once a year, but we needed a vacation as well. We have friends in Tennessee and Nashville was on my list so I decided to extend the trip and do a road trip through Tennessee. We went to the Smokey Mountains, Chattanooga Bridge, 7 point where you can see across 7 states, so many pretty sites. I didn't expect a proposal at all, I didn't even get my nails done and Dave was just starting the business so not in the cards. Well we were on the last day of our 10 day vacation getting ready for a concert in Nashville and I am complaining about what I am wearing and I turn around to see Dave holding a ring half way on one knee. I don't even think he was able to get any words out before I said your doing this in our air bnb????? Haha that was my shocked response, and of course I said YES! To Dave's credit he had a plan at one of the lookout points but it was raining the whole time so here we are making it official.
