We met at Dutchess Community College right after our senior year of high school. Jimmy sat behind me and we started some small talk about people we both knew. For the next two years we were in every class together and then I went to Marist and Jimmy went to Mount St. Mary. Fast-forward 17 years, we started talking through Facebook, Jimmy asked me out and the rest was history.

Norfolk, VA, a place I have made so many memories with friends and family over the years. August 29th was the best one yet! At sunset on the beach, with my parents and niece by our sides, Jimmy got down on one knee and proposed.
