In true Dartmouth fashion, we met at a dance party during winter term of our freshman year. After thoroughly impressing each other with our dance moves, we realized there could be something special and made the big decision to have breakfast together at Lou's. Over the course of many more trips to Lou's, a few more dance parties, two-dollar margaritas, and late nights in the library, we had become inseparable, true adventure buddies, and very much in love.
After graduating from college, a stint of long-distance dating, several moves, and Jenna completing law school and passing the Texas bar exam, we returned to where it all began. In Hanover, we revisited some of our favorite spots and then took a long walk around Occom Pond. At the far end of the pond, in a small clearing near the water's edge, Alex took a knee and popped the question.
