Have you ever seen those Disney movies with the princess being saved by a prince or a hero of some sort from some kind of mishap that is caused by some evil creature? Well that is what happened if there was a Midwestern theme and the hero is a big burley guy that is to loud and makes inappropriate jokes. Alex saw Brooklyn on Instagram where he thought she would be a suitable spouse and requested her friendship so he can begin to court her. Alex tried many attempts to become more than just friends to no prevail. Though Brooklyn rejected these attempts, it did create a very fun and meaningful friendship that they still have to this day. Brooklyn and Alex found out they both liked each other, but Brooklyn needed to be saved from the evil creature in this story, her own mind. Brooklyn had locked her self in a mental tower that Alex was now destined to make sure she was saved from. Alex helped Brooklyn conquer her fear and gained her love and affection for ever...at least that's how Alex saw it happen in his head. BROOKLYN'S THOUGHTS- yeah, I can't really disagree with any of that. My knight in shining armor. <3

Alex proposed on a beautiful summer evening at one of Brooklyn's favorite places.. on the outside deck of her grandparents house, in front of her family with her great grandmother's wedding ring.
