Our Love story starts all the way back in 2009 in Russian class at UNT. Michelle sat in front of Brian the whole semester and would occasionally talk together with a mutual friend. Fast forward 3 years, we ran back into each other at TWU library. Michelle never studied in the library but that day happened to be meeting with a group. Brian also happened coincidentally be studying in the library that day. After that, we became good friends and continued our friendship through grad school. Fast forward to 2017 we officially took our friendship to the next level and began dating. Our first date was sweet as we happened to be wearing matching color tops. We enjoyed a lovely evening at trinity grove, where we (more so Brian) shared chocolates from Kate Weiser. On April 20, 2019, Michelle had gifted Brian a birthday weekend trip to Fredricksburg. We enjoyed a fun day of wineries and exploration and on the night planned for Brian's birthday dinner, he decided to completely switch the cards and propose. Michelle was very shocked, however so excited for Brian pulling off quit the surprise.
