We went to the same high school together. We knew of each other but never hung out together. One afternoon we went to a basketball game with a mutual friend. We talked the whole game and shared lots of smiles and laughs. We exchanged numbers and started seeing each other within a month. And that is where our love story began.

We were going on a short trip to Atlantic City for the weekend. The night before we left Sal got called into work and worked until 7am the morning we were supposed to leave. Sal was exhausted so I started driving towards Atlantic City. It was a rainy day and Sal and I had to keep switching driving on and off as I am not good with driving in the rain. Little did I know, Sal had the engagement ring in his pocket and had to keep switching it from pocket to pocket as we would switch driving the car. Once we made it to the hotel, we went up to the room to settle in. I was out gazing at the ocean taking a photo to share with everyone. I turned around and there was Sal. He said, "I've been wanting to do this for a while now, will you marry me?" Of course I said "Yes!!!!"
