We’re getting married!

While we had some informal conversations here and there, the first time our eyes met was October of 2016. I was selling sweatshirts for my non-profit and a mutual friend was purchasing a couple. Randomly, a very dapper man in uniform came to my work. When I opened the door we both just stood there without saying much of anything, everything slowed down for a few moments. He then remembered the point of his visit was to bring me funds for the sweatshirts. There was a hesitant goodbye and not long after I received a message asking me out on a date. That was the best first date ever, by the way.

We spent a day of our winter vacation in Disneyland with friends. Near the end of our visit we stopped to get a picture in front of the castle. Tim sarcastically said "wasn't this perfect?" To which I responded, "YES, it was." He continued "could it be better? Can we make it more perfect, Babn?" Insert me hitting him (he teased a lot before this point), then he dropped down to one knee and asked me to marry him. I said YES, cried, he choked up, then we both laughed. Engaged at last. We are so excited to celebrate the next chapter in our lives with you. See you in August!
