How did we meet? We credit our relationship to a dating app - thanks to the internet, we will all celebrate together on October 5. Sean swiped right first. Our first date involved drinks on a patio, which has continued to be a favourite activity of ours. What was our first impression of each other? "Sean was confident and funny, even though he claims he was nervous" - Andrea "Curls and a good smile, and it was easy to spend time with her" - Sean What is our favourite thing to do together? We bond easily over hiking, beers, drinking coffee and getting outdoors. In Sean's ideal world, we would add golfing to the list, and in Andrea's dream scenario, we would be going for a run or cooking a big meal together. How did we know each other was the one? It was an easy decision due to how much fun we have together but also how we value each moment we share. We would both say we are a better person in each other's company. We really knew we could go the distance when we moved in together and built furniture and still wanted to be in the same room as each other. What is the story behind the proposal? Sean planned a special day to celebrate Andrea's birthday. It was the perfect cover story to avoid suspicion. It was clear Andrea didn't expect anything as she continued to offer suggestions and made changes to the schedule. We hiked Grassi Lakes in Canmore. Coincidentally, this is a throwback to the first hike we ever did together. At a quiet moment with a pretty view, Sean got down on one knee. It was an easy yes. Andrea's parents hiked up shortly to bring champagne and some expert photography skills. Then we spent the rest of the day celebrating and relaxing at a brewery and the Nordic Spa. What is something we are looking forward to in the future? We can't wait to find some new adventures and continue to build our life together!
