We met working at Techshop, for both of us, this was a dream job that opened up a gazillion opportunities to explore our creative ideas. Our shifts together were filled with laughter, talks about what we wanted to make next, and what the future might hold. I knew Benjamin was special because he thought I looked good in a sweaty black work shirt, we could be cleaning toilets together and he still had this look of absolute adoration on his face. While sharing a lunch break one day - Erin started laughing and a small piece of food flew into Benjamin's open mouth. He didn't say a word - that's true ride or die material and we both knew it. We were thick as thieves back then and still are each other's favorite person to be around.
On the anniversary of when we first started dating, we went back to one of our favorite hangouts - the Sahara lounge. It was a cold night and there was a fire going outside - after warming up with some libations, Benjamin dropped to one knee and we both started crying as this new chapter of our lives as a newly engaged couple began. We're so excited to celebrate with you, see you in Austin!
