We both signed up for a pre-orientation program at Clark University to build houses for Habitat for Humanity. So ~technically~ we met before school even started. Miranda's jetlag was strong- timewise she was probably somewhere over the Atlantic, having moved from Sweden, but taken a red-eye flight from LA before arriving at Clark. Caleb, luckily, only had to drive an hour and a half before moving in. Needless to say, Miranda doesn't actually remember meeting Caleb.

We drove down to Roanoke, Virginia for Caleb's birthday and a music festival. Some of our friends joined, and we decided to go to a vineyard for a wine tasting. Three bottles later, we went on a walk, where Caleb got down on one knee and popped the question. We designed the ring together and the proposal wasn't exactly a surprise, but that didn't stop Miranda from crying on Caleb's shoulder while he was still on one knee.
