We met while Chance was home for Christmas from the Army. Our first date, he came to my apartment and we ordered Japanese and watched The Grinch. We both knew the other was "the one" during our first date.

I had just gotten off of a 12 hour shift and was about to get ready for bed when my mom texted me and asked if I wanted to go shopping with her the next day (Saturday). I told Chance I was so tired I couldn't even think about the next day. He said "You need to go, but you know look nice." Weird of him to say I went to bed and the next day I met my mom at her house in front of my family's horse barn. There was horseshoes laid out in a path for me to follow where Chance stood at the end. Wearing my late grandfathers Circle E Ranch jacket, he got down on one knee with my late grandmothers ring and proposed.
