We're getting married!

The best kind of relationships begin unexpectedly. We met online and corresponded via email for months before we met face to face. When the timing was right, we decided to meet for an afternoon coffee. Little did we know, a quick meet and greet led to long conversations and dinner that night. We spent countless circles around the Palladio walking, talking, and laughing until closing. We had our first dance that night listening to Big Bad Voodoo Daddy on Pandora. You get the astonished feeling and everything happens so suddenly. That's why you don't look for love. It comes to you just at the right time. The time you never thought it would have.

Planes...Helicopter...and Automobiles (literally!) It's been quite an adventure to hike to Havasu Falls. We took a plane ride to Las Vegas, drove four hours to Supai, Arizona, then a five hour wait time to ride the helicopter to Havasupai Village hidden inside the Grand Canyon. We still have to hike another two miles to get to Havasu Falls. The sun was blaring hot in the June afternoon and we could not wait to dip into the blue-green waterfall. Heat exhausted and disoriented, we jumped into the swimming hole. When we emerged, Dave walked me back to a safe ground and got down on one knee. I thought he hurt his knee and then he said "I am tired of waiting for you to ask me to marry me..." He took a ring box out from nowhere, popped the box open and ask me to marry him! Here we are engaged and we are so excited to celebrate this next chapter of our lives with you. See you in Yosemite 2018!
