How We Met

Alyssa and Brendan actually met on a silly dating app called Tinder. They exchanged phone numbers and snapchat names. After about a week of texting, Alyssa "ghosted" Brendan because he was a terrible texter, short replies lost her attention. Not long after, Brendan posted a picture on his snapchat story and Alyssa "slid up" and said "you're so cute" and Brendan replied with "Why are you talking to me?" and ever since then Brendan was stuck with her.

First Date

First date consisted of Olive Garden and bowling! Alyssa did not tell anyone in her family that she was going on a date. She then forgot something at home and decided they would run there and grab it while no one was home. Alyssa grabbed whatever it was she needed and heard her dad, Scott, pulling in the driveway. She hurried up and got Brendan in the car and left. Scott ended up texting Kristen, Alyssa's mom, saying "Who is that boy Alyssa is with?!" Kristen had no clue and FaceTimed Alyssa. Brendan took the phone and introduced himself to Kristen and promised to take care of Alyssa. The night ended with bowling and Alyssa explained to Brendan that she is NOT athletic and hasn't bowled in a very long time. She walked up and got a strike her first try! Safe to say Brendan was pretty impressed.

The Engagement

Brendan's parents came to town for the American Thanksgiving. Alyssa thought it would be the perfect time to show them the Toledo Zoo Lights Before Christmas! She planned dinner at her Nana's house which of course was the amazing spaghetti and meatballs that everyone begs Nana for. They then took the trip to the zoo even though it was half raining, half snowing and was very cold. They walked to the big tree and that's when Brendan wanted to take a picture in front of the tree with Alyssa. They got ready to take the picture and Brendan got down on one knee. He not only surprised Alyssa, but he surprised his parents too! It was a very sweet moment with the family!
