How we met: While living in Boston, I was on business in Chicago for a few days. On a whim, I decided to stay the weekend with a co-worker. While having brunch on the roof deck of the Godfrey Hotel, I heard a “Hey, are y’all talking about us?” I look over to my left and see a beautiful brunette giving me goo goo eyes. Little did I know, she was trying to hook me up with her friend! We all had the best day in Chicago and from that day on, we stayed in touch. Our friendship grew over time and I later decided to take a new job in Austin. She moved down to Austin shortly after and the rest is history! How he did it: I traveled to Portland for Christmas break and was ready for a long, relaxing 2 weeks with Bryan. He planned a NYE trip to the mountains but in total Bryan fashion, everything was a surprise. Little did I know, this trip would be the best trip of my life! We headed to the mountains and ended up taking a snow cat deep into the mountains at Elk Lake Lodge. We decided to take the snow mobiles out later in the day and the views were amazing. We stopped for a quick Whiskey swig and next thing I knew Bryan was down on one knee! I’ll never forget his words, “will you be my forever, bunny?” I was instantly in tears and of course I said YES! Best day ever!
