We met through mutual friends, our soon to be God parents Patty and Adrian. We started talking the day of Adrian's retirement party. When I, Jon saw Letty I was in such aww of her beauty that I didn't know what to say. I was at a total loss for words. After I left the party I felt so bad for the bad first impression that I asked for a second chance to be able to take her on a date. Letty was nice enough to give me the second chance and our first date was to the Aquarium of the Pacific. I knew after that first date that Letty was the one for me and I wanted to do everything to make her happy. After our first date I asked her to be my girlfriend and she said yes!
On January 31, 2018 (Letty's birthday) I took her for breakfast at Mimi's Cafe. There, I (Jon) was plotting a small surprise. I got her family to meet us at our next location. I took her up to the Griffith Observatory where we took a small walk towards the back of the observatory where we had view towards one of the hiking trails and view of Downtown L.A. There we stood till her family arrived. As soon as they arrived, I hugged Letty to avoid her seeing them. After letting her go I took a step back and got in one knee. She said yes! She was so excited that didn’t notice her family standing behind her recording our special moment. I can honestly say it's been a crazy journey with my amazing fiancé and I couldn't imagine taking this next step in our lives with anyone else.
