We met our freshman year at Emory while living in Means Hall. One time, we talked about our mutual love of the band Spoon. Two years later, we both chose to study abroad in Cape Town, South Africa. We arrived a few minutes apart and ahead of everyone else, spent the next few days hanging out with each other, and have been together ever since! Even when Kyle decided to grow a mullet.

For weeks, Kyle had been suggesting we go for a walk in Prospect Park to enjoy the fall foliage. On a Thursday evening, Emily came home from work, and we went on a walk. Kyle had picked several sunny locations for a proposal, but as the sun went down, he realized he'd have to wing it. He eventually settled on a beautiful spot under a tree with the super moon lighting the way, turned to Emily and said, "I really like hanging out with you babe. I think we should keep doing it." Emily gave him a funny look and took a picture of the super moon. When she turned around, Kyle was on one knee. She said "YES!" and here we are. We are so excited to take this next step and so incredibly happy to have you celebrate with us!
