How We Met

January 31, 2014

We met at a birthday dinner for one of my friends. She was dating a close friend of Rok's for quite some time, but had never introduced the two of us. As the guest were arriving, in walks Rok, and yes ladies and gentleman, he looked like a WHOOOOOLE snack. [Insert drooling face here] Throughout the night, we were sort of giving each other the eye, but didn't really say anything. I finally told his friend, "hey, dude is cute" (not the exact words, but y'all get it). What does his friend say?? "Hey Rok!! Jasmine down here choosin!!" Bro. Chill. Flash forward to the end of the night, I walk to the restroom, and as I come out, there was Rok. We STILL didn't say anything to each other *awkward*, but later that night, Rok asked my friend if she would give him my number. We texted THE. ENTIRE. NIGHT. And as they say, the rest is history...

The Proposal

January 1, 2017

It was New Years Eve in Las Vegas and Rok decided to fly out to spend the holidays with me. We were doing some last minute NYE planning and couldn't decide on where to go for dinner. After calling around for several minutes, we finally ended up at Fogo de Chau. By this time it is our third NYE together. Third. Ladies, after three years of dating, what are we most likely thinking about? Exactly. As we were enjoying dinner and drinks, I bring up the discussion of marriage. You know what he had the nerve to say? "I don't know, we should wait. I think 2020 is our year." [insert major side eye here] Nah bro. No. Little did I know, he had the ring in his pocket the whole time! We get back home and had another glass of wine to bring in the new year. When the clock hit 12:00, he was on one knee. I SAID YEEEESSS!!!!
