We met on an online website called Christian Mingle when Michael first "winked" at me. We visited a coffee shop, here in the cities, and chatted for 2 hours upon meeting for the first time. From then on, we kept planning dates to where we were seeing each other multiple times a week. We continued to grow in our companionship for two and a half years.

Geocaching is an activity that grew dear to my heart as it helps make me bond and feel close to my sister, Alexa. Michael and I stopped at an EarthCache (which is like a geocache but is instead a geological formation instead) to search for crystals at the bottom of a dam and waterfall. As we searched, Michael claimed he found one and pointed it out to me. I claimed that it wasn't what they were looking for and Michael responded by saying that "he thinks he found a better one." I turned around and saw him down on one knee where he continued to ask if I would spend the rest of my life with him! :)
