*Written by Lauren: We first met at a new teacher orientation event at Irish Mafia in Bloomfield. I remember the tall, good-looking guy who ran over to the table to sit next to me; Danny remembers checking my hand for a wedding ring and being confused by my overabundance of "pirate jewelry" (his words, not mine). Fast-forward to January when our athletic director was looking for someone to be the Varsity Track Assistant coach. He asked me to take the job, and I said yes, but only on the condition that the Head Coach was okay with it (because I did not have much experience). The Head Coach was Danny.

Written by Danny: It was a sunny Monday in October. I knew I wanted to propose before Meg's wedding, and I was running out of time. We had just gotten home from work. I wanted the proposal to be a surprise, so I asked her to go for a walk with me and Honey.... *For full details, please see Danny at the wedding.
