We're getting married!

We met training together in our local MMA gym, Z's Training Gym. Joe saw a cute blonde girl trying earnestly to learn new things, while Courtney saw some guy with an amazing sense of humor and an astounding amount of chest hair. We quickly became best friends and that grew into what we have today!

Joe had spent 2.5 years trying to perfect the perfect engagment ring by making it himself. He special ordered the diamond (one he remembered Courtney mentioned she liked years before) and bought pieces of gold to melt together, to craft a completely original ring. However, when making in secret in the garage didn't work, he had to go to a professional and made the ring himself with their tools! It turned out perfect. Two days after the ring was finished, he proposed in a tree high up in the Rocky Mountains. She said yes!
