I had just moved home from Nashville, TN and I wanted to make some new friends and get involved in church again. I decided to go to a young adults meeting and that's where I met David. We just so happen to be sitting at the same table and the conversation was easy. We started off as friends going paddle boarding and hanging out at the beach. The friendship quickly became more and that's where our story begins. The first year we were together, we had so many adventures. Many beach days, concerts, a wedding, and Orlando trips. The first year flew by! How he proposed: Christmas was right around the corner and I thought I had the most perfect gift (a Kayak) and that my gift was going to be better than Davids (we joke around about this all the time)! Little did I know what he had planned. I had a feeling that he was going to get me the apple watch, but I had NO idea about the ring. I opened the apple watch on Christmas Eve at his parents house and I was so excited. He mentioned that he got me a second present, but I thought it would be a necklace or something. Christmas day: David and Tera come over for waffles and I gave David his present. While David was checking out the kayak in the pool, Tera was hiding the ring in the Christmas tree with my sister. Long story short, David wrapped a box inside of a box with a note at the bottom that said "find the new ornament on the tree". I found the ornament and that's where he got down on one knee. My entire family was there and it was so incredibly special. We can't wait for May 2019!
