Our story began by messaging on Match.com and agreeing to meet for coffee. On October 13th, 2015 we met at Spot Coffee and talked for over 6 hours before staff politely let us know they were closing and asked us to leave. There was an immediate connection that only grew stronger over time. We now revisit the same Spot Coffee every year on our anniversary!
Lee created a photo album chronicling our relationship. He presented it to me in our apartment, but first he had to put our new kitten in another room (as to not interrupt!), which initially bothered me. The second to last page of the album was a note from Lee to me stating why he loved me and why he wanted to spend the rest of his life with me. At the bottom of the note it said "And now there's only one more picture left to show." The last page was a picture of a blank frame that said, "And here's where I asked you to marry me." At that point, Lee was on one knee! And obviously I said YES!
