HOW WE MET

11-21-2015

We met at a get together that a mutual friend was invited to called “Friends Giving”. We started talking and found that we had a lot in common. Later that week I asked for us to get together and we decided to go to the movies that Saturday. We saw "The Good Dinasaur" and Brayden, Anjenaes' son got scared near the end of the movie. After that day we started hanging out more and more. Sometimes just Anjenae and her son and sometimes with all of our friends. Finally near the end of February I asked Anjenae out on a date and took her to Roy's in La Jolla. She and I both enjoyed each others company and knew we had something.

THE PROPOSAL

02-28-2018

On the morning of our 2nd Anniversary I gave Anjenae an infinity diamond necklace to throw her off for what I actually had planned. I took her to where we went for our first date, Roy's in La Jolla. She had no idea that a week before i was on and off the phone with the manager of the restaurant working out how i was going to pop the question. We arrived at the restaurant and were seated away from most of the other guests to allow our evening to be more intimate (all in the plans). We order and eat, laugh and smile enjoying each other. While we wait for dessert she decides to use the restroom. After she leaves the manager comes to our table to grab my phone to record. Anjenae comes back and takes her seat. A couple of minutes go by and our dessert arrives and my heart goes racing. I put my napkin on the table and say "I'm going to go use the restroom." She didn't realize that i was walking around the table until i got right in front of her and took a knee what i was actually doing. I told her "Since the day we were both here last time I loved you. This restaurant is special to us since then because it was the evening we truly found each other. I wanted to make it even more special to us. Anjenae Nichole Bates, will you marry me?" We look forward to celebrating this next chapter in our lives Can’t wait to see you there
