Luckily for us we had a mutual friend that set us up during a large group gathering at Hooter's on a Friday night, which of course is the most romantic place to meet your forever person. We had our second date, again supervised by our mutual friend, the following night at one of our favorite restaurant's where we were introduced to the chocolate martini and how drinking it out of a pink straw gave it some extra pizzazz which still remains one of our favorite adult beverages.

After living in Maryland for about a year we decided to take a vacation for our 6 year anniversary down in Myrtle Beach. We drove down on our anniversary and started our vacation with shrimp cocktail and mango vodka lemonade ice teas in our trusty bubba jugs. We then decided to go to a seafood restaurant for dinner and Kevin suggested us walking on the beach to get there. As soon as his toes touched the sand he immediately got down on one knee, where I screamed "Yes, about time" and we were engaged and then stuffed our face with seafood to celebrate!
