Allen and I met during the beginning of 2020. Not the most ideal time for dating, but we made it work and quickly became quarantine buddies. We spent hours upon hours, day after day together and surprisingly never got sick of each other! We have the same quirks, weird sense of humor, and hearts with endless love to give. One of our fondest memories together is meeting for lunch on my days off at this cute little diner between my apartment and his job. It was here that he actually asked me to move in with him. Before I knew it I was giving up my downtown apartment for an... interesting condo. I would definitely call it a bachelor pad, it screamed 20 something year old single male lives here. That being said, Allen worked really hard to make me comfortable there and we quickly turned it into a home together. This would later be this place where he'd propose to me. He picked me up from the airport and I walked through the door to find candles, streamers, roses, and balloons suspending in the air with the words "Marry Me", I turned around to him on one knee and immediately burst in to tears. This was one of the happiest days of both of our lives. We are thankful for every day we have had and cannot wait to spend the rest of our lives together!
