We officially met in January of 2017 when we went to the movies together with mutual friends, but we didn't start getting to know each other until we were at a surprise party for a friend's uncle later that year. He wasn't even supposed to attend but decided to tag along with his brother to the party. We really hit it off right away! He made it official on May 20th of that same year and the love story continues from there!
It happened on Easter Sunday surrounded by family and loved ones. John woke up that morning and decided that it was finally the big day. He put the ring in an egg and dropped it near my feet so I would pick it up while helping my nieces pick up eggs. When I opened the egg, there was a handwritten note inside that said, "Will you marry me?" and when I looked up, he was down on one knee! It was the easiest "YES" in my life and the best surprise too!
