We met for our first date on December 28, 2016 at La Familia Mexican Restaurant in Fort Worth, Texas. We were both so giddy and nervous that we both decided not to order any food, but we drank margaritas and ate queso until closing time. Neither one of us got tired of listening to stories about med school or fighter jets, and thats pretty much when we thought, "Okay. This could be something."

Ethan and I spent the entire month of January skiing with my cousins in Colorado while I rotated at Denver Health Hospital. On Saturday, January 19th we planned to go on a hike around Red Rocks and do a triple date dinner with my cousins. On our way to dinner, we decided to stop for a view at the top of the Flatirons in Boulder. The mountain was covered in fresh snow and you could see over 10 mountain peaks from where we were standing. As Ethan walked me along the side of the overlook, I jokingly asked if him and my cousin Omeed had shoveled the path that morning (unbeknownst to me, Omeed and his girlfriend actually did shovel the path to our spot that morning). I guess I'm a nervous talker, because when he didn't respond I told him that if he pretended to tie his shoe I was going not going to be happy going back down the mountain!! A few seconds later he starts his speech and I'm balling my eyes out before he even has the ring in his hand. I said "YES," and we were engaged!!!! After our pictures with the photographer, we headed back to Denver to have celebratory drinks with the cousins. After one drink, we parted ways so we could catch our dinner reservation for the two of us. When the hostess escorted us to our table, I found both our families, my sneaky cousins, and my two best friends all waiting for us. We're so excited to celebrate this next chapter in our lives with you. See you in Cancun!
