We met at a Catholic Campus Ministry event during the first week of our freshman year at Ole Miss. We kept running into each other that week, and we ended up swing dancing at a party at our FOCUS missionaries' house!

Since the beginning of our relationship, we have been making dinner and going to adoration every Tuesday night. On this particular Tuesday, nothing seemed too out of the ordinary: we made a delicious dinner, did the dishes, and went to adoration. After adoration, we went to his house. When he opened the door, dozens of candles were set up around the living room, with the ring on the table in the middle of the candles. We stood there for a few moments, wondering if we were dreaming. Then, he got down on one knee and asked me to marry him! I said yes in about a dozen different ways and we danced to our song.
