How we met

IT issues

I called the Technology Call Center (begrudgingly) as I had to have my password reset and this handsome sounding young man picked up my call. We quickly strayed from IT issues to the latest movies we had seen, where we grew up, and if UFO's existed. We have been inseparable ever since and can't wait to meet each other at the alter.

The engagement

He had me at hello!

Jonathan, Charles and I took a trip to Portland Oregon to see one of my closest friends Sarah. Charles, being the sly guy that he is, crept out of bed the morning of April 25th stating that he was going for a "drive." Unbeknownst to be, he was plotting with Sarah. They came back later that evening and Sarah came in oddly overdressed stating "it's a special day." Confused, I went back to what I was doing only to be called into the hallway to see my son Jon holding a box with a ring. He smiled and yelled "Will you marry me?" We all started laughing and then Charles got down on one knee and said he wanted to spend his life with me. I screamed "yes" at the top of my lungs and we were engaged.
