We met each other online. I swear Mike was sold once he had read that I was a baker and he could have free pastries for life . Our very first conversation was about our dogs, what we did for work, and how Mike had painted a unicorn (the most important part of our conversation). After talking online for a week we finally had our first date where we met at Tavern 109 for lunch, went shopping at Tanger outlets where Mike bought a unicorn scented candle (are you sensing the theme here?), and lastly we played a game of putt putt. After our first date we started dating regularly and became inseparable. With all of our unicorn themed events we started jokingly getting each other little unicorn related gifts, this became the symbol of our relationship. We first first fell in loved when Mike had to go away for a work trip to Cincinnati, Ohio and I decided to stay with him for a weekend. While we were there we went hiking throughout Hawking Hills and ventured through the Cincinnati Zoo. It was around Halloween time, it was pouring rain, and they kept playing the song "Monster Mash" which we now tease that it is "our song". This was the day that we knew that it was meant to be. After 10 months of dating we decided to take another trip to Ohio where we visited the Columbus Zoo for a day and then Hawking Hills. We had been hiking for six hours and decided to extend our trip one more day. The two of us decided it would be nice to stay in Cincinnati and visit the zoo to reminisce about our trip months ago. As we were walking around the zoo Mike kept asking me where my favorite part of the zoo was. I told him that I liked standing on the boardwalk above the blue green water that looked out at the Gibbon apes on their little island. We were about to leave the zoo and Mike said that we should stop there on our way out and I said okay. After looking at the apes we walked down the boardwalk some where we enjoyed the view of the water along with some ducks and turtles. Little did I know this was where Mike was going to propose! It was the perfect proposal because this was the place we fell in love and now it was the place where we officially started our future. We have been loving our life in our new home with our new kitten children! The two of us are so excited to continue on this journey and start our new adventure! Thank you all for reading. We cannot wait to celebrate with all of you!
