Who knew a conversation about vaporwave music in a taco bell in the middle of nowhere on the way to a college weekend retreat would lead to an incredible love story. After the fall retreat, Irene and Heath soon became inseparable and started dating a few weeks later.
Heath and Irene where in portales a few days after christmas to visit a few friends. During the time they both lived in portales they would go on walks everyday at sunset around ENMU’s Campus. These walks hold a special place in the couple's heart because this is how they grew together and soon fell in love.so on this special day, Heath asked Irene to go on a walk as they have done so many times before, but this time was different. When they got to the front of the campus Heath stopped Irene and got down on one knee and asked if she would marry him. Irene was so excited she jumped while she said yes!
