So you’re probably thinking how did these two love birds meet? Well funny thing is we met online hahaha i know i know whhaatttt?!?!? But its true we met online and we just talked nonstop getting to know each other. We went to the movies as our first date…but we werent paying attention when we bought out tickets so we had 2 hours to kill….so we walked around the already closed mall and then walked into target and just had an amazing time people watching and making fun of things so 2 hours go by and its movie time “Black Panther” so we go in lady says theater 4 but our tickets say theater 9 so we go with what she said…well i’d already seen black panther but the movie we were starting to watch was not black panther….turns out we are sitting in the middle seats best seats in the place but wrong movie and theater haha soooo we get up awkwardly and go to our movie. The rest is history :)

OMG let me tell you what the proposal was the best day of my life and yet the one of the most painful days haha So Sam had really wanted to take me hiking when I came to visit after my trip to Mexico. So I said sure why not well his idea of hiking is always overnight backpacking and to be honest I was just not really up for it but to make him happy I will always go hiking with him. So the day before we go and get our tent we buy some food and some other stuff that we needed for the hike. The day of the hike we pack our stuff I have most of the clothes and the blanket and some other stuff he carries the tent and all the heavy gear cooking stuff. Well we had to stop at target for some extra stuff that we totally forgot and couldn’t Find and while I was there he told me to buy some wine but the mini bottles of wine not like a huge bottle of wine. In my head I’m thinking why does he want me to get wine well in my mind I’m like OK when we did Yosemite we had a bottle of wine. So I grab the wine and we get going. So we start the hike and I had to give him some of my stuff because it was getting too heavy and too hard for me to climb. So we get halfway through the hike and we stop for lunch and he gets cold and he wants his vest so I gave it to him (Little do I know the ring is in this vest he doesn’t tell me this until the next day). So we have lunch and we take a nice little break and then we’re like OK we got to get going if we want to get up to the top of the mountain before nightfall. So he gives me his vest back and I roll it up and I put it back in my bag. So we start the rest of the hike and the rest of the hike is pretty steep and all I can think is why does he keep telling me we have to make it to the top why do we have to go all the way to the top of the mound to see the sparkly lights.

Now we’ve been dating for 3 years and anytime we’ve had a romantic day or a date or go somewhere romantic I always say hint hint this would be a great time to propose you know. I’ve also told him never to propose to me while on a hike because I usually look like crap or I’m really red. So this entire hike I never mention it at all because I know he’s not going to propose to me on a hike because I asked him for this. But at the same time I’m thinking damn I better get a proposal out of this because this hike is kicking my ass. So we make it 3/4 of the way up and we find this cute little spot literally on the trail but in between two mountains that we could pitch a tent and call it a night if we need to. But he says no we have to go to the top… again I keep thinking why do we have to go to the top of this mountain. In my head again I’m thinking OK maybe he did this hike the day before and set some stuff up but I’m like no he’s doing this hike really smooth for someone who couldn’t have done this a day before. So we keep going finally we make it after 7 hours of hiking plus our breaks. So we pitch a tent we take some pictures before the sunset and during sunset. And we have a little dinner scrambled eggs and bacon and some coffee. And I’m really thirsty so I’m like yo when are we going to have those wine bottles.

So finally it turns dark and we can finally see The city lights and how everything is just all the lit up. So I’m holding him and I tell him I love him and he says I love you too and I say oh yeah and he says yeah do you want me to prove it… So I said yeah sure… He says are you really sure you want me to prove it… And there he goes going down on one knee and pulling out the ring and asking me to marry him. Oh I was so ecstatic but yet so shocked that all I could say was OMG I was laughing and crying at the same time and not laughing like youre funny laughing but more of like a shocked n happy laugh. It took me a good minute or two to finally say yes after my crying and wanting to kiss him and just enjoy the moment. I couldn’t have asked him to do it any better because I was literally shocked and surprised by it all.
