We met during Ally's last semester at Sierra College. We would hang out after classes with a large group of friends and talk, laugh and play super smash bros. Even though neither of us wanted a long distance relationship we flirted with each other like crazy. Alexia called Ally telling her that the flirting was sickening and they should go out already. Not even a minute after hanging up with Ally, Forrest called Alexia to ask for advice on how to ask her out. The very next day we had our first date!

We were celebrating our 3 year anniversary by taking a trip to a vegan B&B. On the day he proposed we went in to Sequoia national park and did some hiking. Unfortunately for us the car battery died and we had no cell service. Forrest hitched a ride while Ally waited in the car for an hour and a half until the tow truck arrived. Funny thing was Forrest had left the ring in the center console of the car and if Ally happened to open it she would have found it! Once the car was fixed we went back to the B&B and received cooking lessons and a couples massage. Afterwords we played a game of what are your 5 favorite things about me. At first Ally thought it was just a game so she didn't take him seriously until she saw the ring. For what felt like forever they sat silently while Ally was trying to remember how to speak. She finally nodded her head and said "yes!"
