Robert had no idea when he took an impromptu motorcycle ride to Casper, WY for a single parent picnic he would meet Dannielle and forever change his life. The afternoon and evening they spent hanging out with friends, riding the motorcycle, and bonding was eventful and exciting. Throughout the next few months, Robert and Dannielle visited eachother in both Gillette, WY and Casper, WY multiple times. As their relationship grew, Dannielle made the huge decision to move from Casper, WY to Gillette, WY with her two kids Dylan and Olivia. This decision eventually lead into Robert and Dannielle taking a work-sponsored vacation.
The work trip and vacation all rolled into one. This trip was the best vacation we both ever had! Thank you to Robert's work for loving on us like that! The trip started out a bit bumpy as the flight was delayed out of Gillette, but the airline held the connecting flight from Denver to Cancun. But because we were so late getting to Denver our luggage didn't actually make the flight we were on. I (Dannielle) was in a panic when the luggage didn't arrive by 6 pm, but Robert seemed to be calm, as though nothing could phase him. We went to the opening reception for the NAPA owners, dealers, and employees but I was so worried that we weren't going to have any clothes for a week we went back to the concierge to see if the luggage had arrived. It had! Crisis averted! Time to party! Fast forward a day or two into the trip. After getting off a work Skype call, I was ready to head out and do some exploring. Robert went to the suitcase and brought out a small package... Come to find out I had packed the suitcase and had managed to pack my own engagement ring! Sneaky of Robert but super fun. Of course, I said yes!
