We’re getting married!!

We met on a rainy Thursday evening for a dinner and drinks. We were both so very nervous, but the second we sat down and began talking we both felt an immediate connection. After a glass or two of wine, dinner and desert Christina invited Avriel back to her apartment for coffee. The evening was filled with amazing conversations, great music, many laughs and finally that perfect good night kiss. The rest is history!

I had been taking some time be write in a journal I had created for Christina. I had this thought that I would attempt to write a letter to her each day until I filled the pages. Each day turned into a couple days a week. I had this idea that I would have this combination of memories and internal thoughts that would lead up to this one perfect moment. We arrived home from work and I ask Christina to take our dogs outside. While she was outside I opened the journal to that days musings, placed it on the bed and set the ring on top. She came inside and went to change her clothes just like every other day. When she noticed the journal she stopped. I was peaking around the corner watching her read through these words that had earlier poured out of my heart. Finally, when she reach the end of the page, where I had very emotionally scribbled "Will You Marry Me?" I walked up to her, tears in her eyes, she said "Of Course." -Avriel
