Connor and Brittany met at a Halloween party in late October of 2014. Connor was introduced to Brittany by a mutual friend as "Dan London's sister" because Connor knew Dan from a student organization they were both in at Texas A&M. While they didn't talk long that night, both Connor and Brittany left wanting to get to know each other better! Over the next few months, they'd see each other for mass and brunch on Sundays and other group hangouts. Finally, in January of 2015, they went on their first date and the rest is history!

The original plan for the proposal was to take both of our families to Big Bend State Park for a long weekend trip before the weather got too hot. Inside the Chisos Basin area of the park is a trail called the South Rim which takes you to an amazing overlook of the entire park. Despite our best efforts, our families schedules didn't spare enough time for a 10 hour drive to South Texas. After that, I went to plan B. It seems cliche, but every time we drove into Dallas over our 3+ year relationship, Brittany always said she wanted to visit Reunion Tower. So one weekend, in August 2018, I snuck our families to a restaurant down the street, took her up to the ball, and asked her to take me as her partner in love, faith and life.
