How We Met

Before going back to school, I cleaned military offices for a living. Zach is active duty Navy and had recently moved to Chattanooga from Gulfport for recruiting duty. I noticed him immediately. All the other recruiters in his office caught on, but Zach was oblivious. I finally had one of the guys start hinting around for me and he eventually gave Zach my number. After texting for a bit, I was finally able to persuade Zach to take me on a lunch date to Ichiban so I could charm him. The rest is history....

The Proposal

Zach and I had planned to take Nora to the Enchanted Garden of Lights at Rock City. We finally were able to take her on December 19. It was freezing!! But it was beautiful and magical. We stopped for a quick minute in front of a large lit up star so Zach could snap a picture of Nora and I, then we continued on our way. We came to the end about to start walking back to the car and Zach said, "Wait, let's go back to that star because we haven't gotten a picture of the two of us yet." So, we trekked back to the star and gave Nora the phone. She took a picture and as I was turning around to face Zach so we could leave, he got down on one knee and asked me to be his wife!
