How We Met

September 2015

We met in economics class in high school, where we were just sat next to each other by the teacher. It was one of those things where we didn't know each other, and whereas he was impressed he got sat next to a cute girl, she could care less about the boy with the messy hair and obnoxious orange jacket. But as class went on, we had partnered up for projects because neither one of us knew anyone else in the class, and it was just easier to skip the awkwardness of going and asking others when we were already sitting together. Got to knowing each other, and became good friends, then on the last day of the semester, when it might've been the last time we would see each other, we met up after school (after she took his jacket). It wasn't until a few months later that we actually sat down and thought about it, and realized that we just started acting like a couple, neither of us actually thought about asking the other out officially, but it worked for us, and to this day we still consider that first kiss to be our anniversary date. (Of course we decided at that time to make it official).

The Proposal

August 16, 2020

After nearly a year away for deployment, Sam comes home and we immediately go to the coast for the weekend. While we're there, we're watching the perseid meteor shower with a nice fire going on the beach, and things are just perfect! Next thing, he's down on one knee, shaking and smiling like a fool, and of course the answer was yes! Right after that, some kids started shooting off fireworks, and it was absolutely perfect.

For all the days along the way
