Together for over 13 years, we’ve practically grown up together. Here is a timeline of our key moments – Circa 2003 – Good 'ole middle school days. Eric & Emily met through her brother, Scott. Eric was just an acquaintance to Emily and quickly labeled as one of Scott’s pesky friends. 2007 – High School. Emily and Eric developed a friendship, which quickly flourished into flirtation. The morning after a friend’s wild jungle themed party, Emily realized Eric was a catch when he surprised her at work with her favorite Starbucks drink. 2008 – Valentine’s Day. Eric took Emily on a date to sushi and a punk rock show at a roller rink. Eric popped the big question that night – “will you be my girlfriend?”. Emily obviously said yes. 2009-2017 fast forward – Emily & Eric moved to San Diego, lost cherished loved ones, graduated, moved back home, and developed careers. It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. 2018 – Eric took Emily to see a “rare bird migration" at Battery Spencer, an observation deck overlooking the Golden Gate bridge. Eric proposed to Emily and she said yes. She was shocked and there were no birds to be found. 2019-2020 – Planned on getting married & then a pandemic happened…had a fur baby instead and welcomed Manny the Frenchie into our lives. 2021 – We. Are. Finally. Getting. Married. YESSSSSS!!!!!
