We had known each other for about a year when one clear Thursday night in July we tried to get a group of friends together to go stargazing. Fortunately for us, no one else showed up. Little did we know this night was the beginning of the rest of our lives. We laughed for hours, and it was the start of never ending silliness and love.

After Bobby planned to propose in Washington, DC and carried the ring in his pocket all weekend, we spent the following Sunday in Ithaca. The forecast was intermittent rain and the sky was grey all day until we walked to Ithaca Falls and stood in awe. Ithaca Falls has always been one of our favorite places and it's where the sparks first started before we were dating. The sun peeked through the clouds and the sky cleared. Bobby professed his love, stepped back, and got on one knee. She said yes! She was so excited that she completely forgot to let him put the ring on her finger! After minutes of loving embrace, the ring made it onto her finger and all the smiles ensued.
