We met through Matt's co-worker Hannah. Matt helped her with a project. Their manager joked that she should set him up with a girl, but to our delight she took him seriously. Hannah and I attended the same Sunday school at the church. One day after Sunday School, Hannah called me over and asked me if I ever considered dating an American boy. I said I would, and the date was set. A few weeks later we met at CC's Coffee the first time.

We went to the Blood Mountains with Matt's friends for a vacation. He proposed at the waterfall. I was very surprised and didn't know what to do. My first response to run away. He pulled me back. I cried. We hugged. People cheered for us, and I said YES. It was an unforgettable moment for both of us. We're so excited to celebrate this next chapter in our lives with you. See you at the Gatehouse in Baton Rouge, LA
