Christian and I met in 2012 during our Sophomore English class. After a few months of "playing hard to get", I finally agreed to go on a date with him. He asked me out to Wassailfest, where we really got to know each other, ate some food, and drank some wassail. As simple as this date was, it was the most perfect and definitely still one of my favorite dates that we've been on. As another year passes, we continue the tradition of attending Wassailfest and remembering our very first date.
What an amazing day this was. Christian surprised me to some big plans on a Saturday morning, he told me to get dressed and he'll pick me up. I felt anticipation for what was coming, but I wasn't too sure what he had planned. He drove me to our favorite restaurant, Chama Gaucha Brazilian Steakhouse, and walked me to a private room. He asked me to close my eyes and when I finally opened them again; there he was on his knee. I was shocked, emotional, and in disbelief that someone would love me this much to have planned something so elaborate. Of course, I said yes!
