We met back in 2012 at a New Years' Eve party. Fast forward about 5 years. I was hanging out with a friend of mine, and she said something along the lines of "my friend Timmy is having people over, his friend said he would pick us up if you want to go." Timmy and his friend came and picked us up, and the rest is history. We have been together ever since.

With Timmy and I living in CA, we tried to get family pictures taken yearly when we come and visit. We had planned to get them done a few days before Christmas, since we were in town for the holidays. I can remember how the whole family was trying to decide if we were going to try to dress in a similar way. Everyone rushing around the house and getting ready before we left to the Falls (Minnehaha Falls is where we had planned to get them done, as this has been where we had gotten them done in the past). Timmy and I drove separate, and the rest of the gang followed behind us. There was a huge snowstorm that day, so the roads were terrible. When Timmy and I arrived, I had to call my parents to see where they were, and they said "we are about 10 mins out, traffic is pretty bad. You two should just get out and get yours done so that way we can get the pictures done faster, since you will probably want a few together anyways." I can remember I was so crabby, the weather sucked, it was freezing out, I was just not in a good mood. We meet the photographer, get a few pics, both still wearing our winter jackets, because again, FREEZING. We finally decide we should probably take the jackets off the get some "cuter" pictures. I take off my jacket, place it on the ledge at the falls, turn around, and there Timmy was. On his knee. "Will you marry me?" I'm pretty sure i said something like, yeah, right? are you serious? for real? Then "Yes!!"
