How We Met

October 2012

It only seemed appropriate to have our engagement photos taken at this years 2018 Annapolis Sailboat Show, seeing that we met there six years ago. Three years later, fate would have it we would see each other again. Spending every moment possible before leaving on his Coast Guard deployment to Bahrain in 2015, Sammy and I knew we wanted to make the commitment to each other. For thirteen months and over 6,000 miles away, Sammy and I grew closer together. Though it was not easy, it only made us stronger and reaffirmed that we wanted to be together forever. Now in 2018, we have made a home in Arnold, Maryland with our children and fur babies. When Sammy is not on the golf course, you can find us all cruising the Severn River aboard Atta Girl. We are excited to celebrate this next chapter of our lives with our family and friends on August 31, 2019.

The Proposal

As any Southern Gent would do, Sammy traditionally asked my father and son for their permission to marry me on Thanksgiving 2017. Without hesitation, they gave him their blessing. By my surprise, Sammy invited me to find the ring together the very next day. How excited we were to tell Sammy’s youngest children. Gathering them at our home, Sammy pulled out the ring box and asked “Do you know what this is?”, and the kids excitedly exclaimed “It’s an engagement ring!” At that point, Sammy placed the ring on my finger and we made the commitment to each other and our children to love one another and our families.
