We started talking on Facebook August 2015, thanks to Cierra (maid of honor) and Alex by introducing us. At the time, Latasha was starting her new program (Neurodiagnostic Technology) in Springfield, IL while he was living in Kenmore, WA. Exactly 2,081.7 miles apart. We first met in person in November 2015 during her Thanksgiving break at Umi's Thai Restaurant in Kenmore. That's when the journey started.. While Latasha was gone for two years, we did our best to keep the romance alive day by day and staying strong waiting for that day where we can be together. After graduating from that long distance relationship, we know we can survive anything that comes our way.
February 23rd, he called her at work and happily told her that he got a 5 dollar raise and that we should celebrate. She was ecstatic and gladly agreed. He told her to dress up in the fanciest clothes and that we were going to Shaktis (Our favorite formal dining restaurant in Wenatchee). Midway through dinner, he tells her that he has a confession to make. He states that he never received a pay raise. She was confused and furious. In her mind, Andrew loves food and would do anything to eat a juicy, rare Filet Mignon. He continues with his confession by getting down on one knee and proposing to her with not even one person around us. Her emotions were so mixed with anger evolving into happiness which made her very speechless. And as you all know, She said yes!! P.S When traveling to Wenatchee for our wedding, you should definitely check out Shaktis if you don't mind paying a pretty penny but ohh so worth it! ;)
