We met when I was a Senior in high school and Brendan was a Junior. We were on a double date at Panera, but not with each other! I went off to college, but we still kept in touch and saw each other when I would come home for breaks. From Yankee Games, to Jones Beach trips, to the famous NYPD Hockey Game when Brendan finally told me how he really felt, we knew our story was just beginning.

Brendan and I were traveling back to New York for Thanksgiving, when he suddenly had the urge to go to Central Park. I went along with it, and on a freezing day in November, we strolled through the park (and eventually took a pedi-cab) looking for the famous Bethesda fountain. Little did we know, there would be no water in it! We still made the best of it, and before I knew it Brendan was down on one knee with the most beautiful ring asking me to marry him. We're so excited to celebrate this next chapter of our lives with you!
