He lived in Florida but was home for the holiday weekend in DC... Katrelle is from Florida but was living in DC. So, what do single people do on a random Saturday you might ask?... Find people in their area that they share mutual interest in. And, that is exactly what happened. One swipe right ended up as a fun Saturday impromptu date... into a weekend at the theme park... into a summer romance. As serendipitous as the romance was, it was nothing short of a blessing; especially with the birth of our princess, Aurora! So, as Rihanna's song states, we truly, "found love in a hopeless place."

It was a sunny day in Florida, and it was the big day - Jonathan was being promoted to Captain in the United States Air Force. In front of our family and friends, we celebrated the wondrous occasion. Later that night, we went to a restaurant on the river to have an intimate family and friends dinner. Jonathan asked Katrelle to, "come take a walk by the water". Once alone, yet still in the view of family and friends (On one knee, with the blessings of Katrelle's parents), Jonathan popped the question. It came as a complete surprise to Katrelle as she almost "fell out" from the excitement.
