We're getting married!

Matt was living in Jonesboro, Arkansas and working as an IT technician for UPS. Brittny was living in Cabot, Arkansas managing a Mexican Restaurant. Neither of them expected much to come from online dating but they decided to give it a shot. On July 3rd Matt discovered Brittny's profile. He says that his attention was caught by her pretty face and the story of her weight loss and desire to live a healthier life. After Brittny received his first message, she was drawn to Matt's smile and height. She was impressed by his mention of his Myers-Briggs test results. The conversation flowed easily and the two exchanged phone numbers. After a few days of connecting over common goals and interests, Matt made the two hour drive to meet Brittny during her lunch break at a local Italian restaurant. The following weekend Brittny visited Matt for a second date in Jonesboro. It was after this weekend that Matt asked Brittny if she wanted to be in an official, exclusive relationship and she said yes.

It was the day before the Fourth of July. Brittny was at home waiting for Matt to arrive from Jonesboro so they could spend the holiday with her family. Unfortunately she had missed a flower delivery, but found a note on the door and thought nothing of it. A while after Matt arrived, he called for Brittny's assistance with one of the dogs. When she went into the living room, Matt's dog Scarlett was walking down the hallway with something dragging behind her. Brittny detached a letter from the string that was tied to Scarlett's collar and opened it. Inside was written "When its right its right. Mommy, Daddy wants to know if you will marry him?" And then Matt was on one knee with a ring. Brittny was totally surprised and had not been expecting it that day, but she of course said "YES!"
