We first met in 2016 at a work orientation. We spent the next two years as acquaintances, only seeing each other occasionally at work. During the summer of 2018 we got to know each other better, and before we knew it, we were inseparable!
One weekend in July Collin took me on my first trip to Fayetteville! We started with lunch at Hammontree's Grilled Cheese and then we went on a wildlife safari drive. Later that afternoon we went to Lake Fayetteville and decided to take a walk. After about 10 minutes it began to storm and we we had to rush to our car. As we were sitting and drying off Collin pulled out a letter and told me to read it. As I read it, he pulled out the ring and proposed!
