It was the summer after my first semester of nursing school at NMU, and I was working as a CNA at a nursing home. One day, some new hires came in, and David was assigned to me as my trainee. I could tell he was nervous on his first day (though he later joked it was because he thought I was cute and intimidated by me). I remember thinking how adorable he was, with his floppy, curly hair. We quickly hit it off when we discovered we both grew up in the same area and shared similar interests. By the end of the summer, we were dating, and things got serious pretty fast. Even then, I remember thinking to myself that I could potentially marry this guy. Fast forward nearly seven years, and he finally popped the question! We’re beyond excited to share this journey with you all and can’t wait to celebrate our special day together! You will have to ask David for how he asked me to hang out the first time. For those of you that know him, you'll know its a weird, but funny story!
