We met in our home away from home - Bankshots. There we played pool, ran tournaments and became friends. Years later we sat at table, after I went on another miserable date, lamenting and laughing about online dating failures. Shortly after that he got the courage to ask me out to a friends retirement party, where we did what came natural to us - played pool and had a couple beers :) Since then our friendship has deepened and our lives have become entwined - birthdays, Sunday fundays, vacations and the adoption of our two fur-babies. Fast forward a few years later, he popped the question on our third anniversary in our dining room, while I prepared for our Thanksgiving festivities. I remember feeling his arm sliding around me with an open ring box in his hand, him whispering in my ear asking me if I'd marry him... of course I said yes, but as I looked at the beauty of my ring I wondered if it was REALLY happening.
