How We Met

2009

We were both soccer players at Lasell College & hung around the same people, always said hello in passing and how ya doing at parties. I even have a photo of Shane from 2009 at a party we were both at! We both went through college, Shane left in '10, and in '12, my senior year, Shane came back for alumni weekend. We started dating shortly after and instantly fell in love.

The Proposal

2019

After seven years of dating, Shane proposed just before Christmas on 12.19.19. He surprised me with a trip to New York City to see Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, a play I've wanted to see for years. He told me we were going to New York at my work Christmas party at Fenway Park, and I didn't think I could ever be happier. Until the next day! We took a bus from South Station, and what was supposed to be four hours took six in a greyhound bus. We hit LOTS of traffic, a gentleman clogged the toilet and had to be let off to prevent an accident (!) and then a taxi hit us! Shane was nervous and anxious about getting there on time, but I thought it was just for the play! We made it in time, it was the best play I have ever seen. So magical, just like the event that was about to happen! We walked over to Rockerfeller Center, he took me out on the ice, and after a couple whirls around the rink, we went to take a photo in the middle of the ice, and he dropped on one knee. Best. Night. EVER!
