We met at Sherwin Williams in Kirkland when Meaghan was managing the store. Marcus was in a long line one summer morning and when he got to the front of the line he couldnt remember what he needed, this drove Meaghan crazy but Marcus would tell you that he was so distracted by her beauty that he lost his train of thought :) Meaghan asked Marcus to make a phone call and figure out what he needed while she helped the next customer, Marcus did not love this, and he walked out with a bad taste in his mouth about her. Fast forward two yeasr and Meaghan got a promotion and was now Marcus's sales rep and now got to work directly with him. The store manager at the time, Robel, called Marcus to tell him the great news and Marcus was less than excited. After they had been introduced officially and started working together, they met for drinks after work one hot summer day at Juanita Pub with Robel and a girlfriend of Meaghan's. They had drinks and dinner and played beer pong, where Meaghan made every cup and Marcus was obviously impressed haha. That night Meaghan made them all homemade spaghetti and Marcus slept on the porch on some cardboard boxes :) A week later Marcus took Meaghan on an official date and that was the beginning of it all. We fell in love quickly and hard and have never looked back. We feel so lucky to have found our best friends in eachother and for all the support we have been given from our family and friends. Thank you all for sharing this special time with us we hope you have a blast!

This year for Christmas we went to Suncadia with Meaghan's family and rented a cabin, this has become a really fun tradition and this year was made even more special. We got there early in the morning on December 22nd and Marcus suprised me with a couples massage at the spa. He was bugging me all morning on the drive there asking if I was going to put makeup on, which he never does and is always urging me to go all natural. Finally I put on some mascara and bronzer which soon all melted off and was in my eyes when we went in the hot springs and sauna...duh! We got our massages which were amazing and as soon as they were over Marcus walked over to me and held my hands, I had just woken up and had NO clue what was going on. He told me the sweetest things that every girls wants to hear and got down on one knee and asked me to be his wife!!! I cried of course and said YES! The massage therapists knocked on the door and we shared the news! We all celebrated with champagne :) Side note: Marcus was struggling with how to get the ring into the room because the box made the pocket of his robe stick out and I would have noticed, so he wore his boxer briefs and had the ring in the box in there the whole time!!! :) I guess it was all worth it!
