HOW WE MET

May 24, 2015

It all started with calimochos (Kalimotxo) at the annual Basque Picnic. My little sister Haley, who knew Michael, introduced us. After months of texting and attempts on Michael's part, he finally convinced me to go on a date with him. Ever since then he's been stuck with me.

THE PROPOSAL

June 22, 2019

It was Michael's birthday weekend, so we headed to Ventura Beach to celebrate. Ventura holds a special spot in both our hearts for many reasons, so it only made sense that Michael wanted to go there. Once we arrived Michael wanted to go on a walk. After making me climb a sand hill and searching for his mom and sister who were supposedly dolphin watching, I turn around to my best friend down on one knee. I was completely shocked, not even expecting this amazing surprise! Ironically, a month before this weekend, I asked Michael what he wanted for his birthday and he had no idea, so I suggested that he should just propose to me because I was the best gift he was ever going to get. Obviously he agreed! We're so excited to celebrate this new chapter of our lives with all the people that hold a special spot in our hearts. See y'all in May!
