We're getting Married!

We had worked at the same country club (Brock as a lifeguard and Lesley in the fitness center) for almost 2 years before we ended up going out one night for drinks with a group of our coworkers. As our coworkers were talking to some strangers at the bar, I sat down with Brock. We started talking, building little houses with Jenga blocks and before we knew it, sparks were flying. After that night we did everything together, from trying new restaurants to going on fishing trips, we were inseparable. After 6 months of dating on January 1, 2015, Brock asked me to be his girlfriend. Since then, we have traveled to Colorado, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Canada, took a cruise to Cozumel, and road tripped to many lakes, campsites and fishing holes in Texas.

In November 2019, we took a week long vacation to now one of our favorite places, Seattle, Washington. Little did I know, this city would be a very special place in our story. During our last night in the city, Brock took me out to a fancy restaurant on the water, AQUA, by El Gaucho. While I was in the restroom, he let our waitress in on his secret. Right before dessert, Brock wanted to take a photo, so he got up and came around the table. As I was turning to get out of my seat, he takes my hand and gets down on one knee. Our waitress took some great photos of my happy tears and we got an ovation from the restaurant visitors. We kept this news to ourselves for the night and went on Seattle's Great Wheel to celebrate.
