We're getting married!

Ryan and I met online towards the end of June 2018 and met in person on July 4th. We were talking on the phone that day and he had asked how long I'd like to wait until meeting. I said, "How about tonight? I don't want to wait." I knew this man was special and I couldn't wait to find out if my feelings were right.....they were :)

What most of you don't know is that Ryan and I had been talking about engagement well before the proposal. We may have even had some things booked for the wedding before the engagement too.... Anyways, on to the proposal! Ryan and I had invited our families to visit the USS North Carolina. My family hadn't seen it yet and had been wanting to go. Since our families get along so well, we invited Ryan's as well. Or that's what I thought was going on. I think you all know why our families were actually with us! They had known about it the week before and did AMAZING at keeping it a secret. I had no idea it was happening that weekend! We were taking family photos when he got on one knee and popped the question :)
