We met after Stefan's Aunt Jenifer got him involved in Oliver! with Footlighters Community Theater in Des Plaines the summer before we started high school.
During Footlighters’ production of Grease we decided we liked each other as more than friends.
Stefan asked Brittney to be his girlfriend while slow dancing at Prospect High School's Winter Ball. Don't ask what the song was...we have no idea.
We decided we more than liked each other.
We made the decision to go our separate ways for college and try long distance. So starts the nightly phone calls, Skype dates and roadtrips to see each other.
Brittney accepts her first job teaching in Indiana and Stefan gets officially accepted into graduate school. So much for being done with the whole long distance thing...
Brittney moved back to Chicago! That was a long 5 years apart!
Stefan bought his first house and we made it our first home.
Brittney and Stefan rode their bikes on the Chicago North Branch Trail to the Chicago Botanic Gardens where we got engaged!
