When Kevin first saw Jaime, he was working hard in a super cool store. One day Jaime and her friend walked in and Kevin immediately noticed Jaime’s hoodie and decided to strike up a conversation. Weeks later, Kevin had quit that job and reached out to Jaime letting her know that he was no longer there and wanted to hang out. After some time Jaime made the right decision and freed up her schedule. The two of us agreed to meet at Tilt, which was near the store Jaime was working at. We immediately hit it off and talked for hours. And just like that...
After their first date thing's changed, Kevin went to spend some time with his parents in Corvallis, Oregon. Jaime was still in Portland, managing a boutique downtown. During this time Jaime lost her father and booked a one-way ticket back to Maui to spend time with her loved ones. The day Jaime returned; Kevin met Jaime at her apartment, we walked to around NW Portland and ended up at the Wallace Park where they sat and talked for hours. We spent every day that following week together. And continued to spend the next seven years together.
When Kevin proposed to Jaime, we were on a trip to Palm Springs for Jaime's birthday. They flew into Los Angeles and drove through the desert. We spent a few day exploring around and on June 2nd we decided to drive to Joshua Tree. We stopped at Tommy Bahamas for lunch and had Pina Coladas, Jaime still had no idea what kind of Birthday Surprise Kevin had in store. Once we arrived at Joshua Tree we walked around the desert and made sure not to get bit by any snakes. When Kevin got down on one knee Jaime started laughing/crying and asked, " Are you serious?" and then said yes. Kevin had successfully kept the ring a secret the whole time. Once we were back in service we called all our loved ones to let them know!
