How it began

True Love Really Does Find You When You're Not Looking

We met through mutual friends and at first had absolutely no interest in each other. However, we began helping each other heal from our recent breakups and daily stressors. We started talking every day and spending almost all of our spare time together. However, all too quickly we realized we couldn't just be friends. Our relationship bloomed and we became inseparable.

The Proposal

We'll never forget 2020

We got engaged at the beginning of April of 2020. We all remember what that looked like; coronavirus, nationwide shutdowns because of coronavirus, and the wonderful toilet paper shortage because of coronavirus. All of the events we had planned got cancelled but Cody didn't let that stop him. The night of April 2nd, Cody told me I had to leave the house the next day. At first, I thought nothing of it until the next day when he basically shoved me out of the house. I knew. I spent the whole day with my mom anxious and excited. I came home when he said I could and I was shaking the entire drive. I opened the front door to Cody on one knee with my ring in his hands. He had cleaned the whole house, made our favorite pizza (macaroni and cheese), bought my favorite flowers (daisies), and had my favorite wine on ice. He was so nervous he forgot he had to actually ask me to marry him. We laughed about it and I made him get the words out. It was everything I wanted. The man of my dreams struggled to put my ring on me and we hugged, kissed, and shotgunned beers together.
