Joshua and Evely met in Baltimore, MD where Joshua was a football athletic trainer and Evely was a volleyball student athlete at Morgan State University. They started interacting with each other on the phone on a daily basis. Joshua asked Evely to go eat ice cream with him downtown one night at the harbor. They spent all night talking and Laughing and never actually got ice cream. From that night on, they have been a couple and since then, every year on september 13th they go to the harbor, talk and laugh and still never eat ice cream.
Joshua planned to propose to Evely on her birthday which is on March 6th, however he got the ring from the jewlery store on march 5th and could not wait one more day to propose and share the new life with Evely. Joshua was meeting Evely at home to pick her up and go see a house they were interested in. On his way home he called Evely to get ready and he would be home soon. When he got home, he told Evely to come outside. Once evely opened the door, Joshua was waiting for her on one knee and asked her to marry him. Evely jumped surprised at first, but then smiled back to him and said YES!
