How We Met

A MATCH made in Heaven..

We met on Match June 11, 2017.. After a few weeks of talking, we decided we wanted to take the chance and go on a date. When Cody and I met on our first date, I took a look at him and thought to myself, "This man is going to change my life in ways I never thought possible." I also thought his accent was incredibly sexy, even though I couldn't understand most of what he said during dinner that night. HAHA! By our third date I knew I was in love with him and that he would be the man I'll marry someday.

The Proposal

October 7, 2018

This story requires a backstory going back to our first Christmas together in 2017. Cody's Christmas gift to me came in the form of a scavenger hunt. I came home from work and he had set up a beautifully planned scavenger hunt that sent me through the entire house leading to my gift. At each point of the hunt, he had a little prop set up with candles lit along with a riddle I had to figure out that would lead me to my next spot. At the end of the scavenger hunt, he left me a sweet, heartfelt note expressing his feelings. Along with the note was a necklace. Knowing that tidbit of information, let's continue on with the story of our proposal. It was an ordinary day, I had just picked up one of my best friends from the airport because she was visiting us for a week. When we arrived home and I was about to unlock the front door, I noticed what seemed like candles burning on the dining room table in the pitch black. I look over at my friend and tell her, "ummm... this is deja vu. This feels a lot like Christmas last year.." I start freaking out and we go in the house to examine what is going on. On the dining room table there is a beautiful setup of candles lit and a handwritten note. I am reading the note and I start tearing up because I can't believe what I am reading. He is asking me to spend the rest of my life with him. I look around and notice the ring, and at that point I am beyond words and also freaking out because I have no idea where Cody is and so I start yelling for Cody, but I get no answer. I then call him, and his answer? "Oh, I'm over at Sam's place. He's making salmon for dinner. We're going to his house for dinner." So, that's great and all, but that still leaves the fact that he is NOT HOME. He then proceeds to ask, "so is that a yes?" I told him no, that I will not answer that OVER THE PHONE. He proceeds to tell me that he is on his way back home, and when he gets home he gets down on one knee and pops the question.
