It was Halloween 2013, she was Ke$ha, he was Deadpool. They locked eyes over the beer pong table and the rest was history... *cue the wedding bells and the white doves* Well, besides the cheesy part at the end. We met at a friend's Halloween party and spent the whole night drunkenly (sorry mom) flirting. The night also included a small food fight, me almost getting stuck under a bed, and a foggy promise that neither of us quite remember, but I digress. We parted ways at the end of the night and I woke up the next day with fond memories and no expectations, I didn't even have his number! But two days later, with coffee in hand, he surprised me at work and sat with me through my entire 8 hour shift. Within 3 weeks, he had moved in with me and the rest is truly history. We say all the time that with the back-ass-wards way we did things, it never should have worked out, but almost 6 years, 3 moves and 2 dogs later, here we are, ready to start the next chapter of our lives!

Scotty surprised me at my Dad's birthday party, surrounded by our family, and some of our closest friends. I had gone in the house to grab the birthday cake and when I walked back out, they were all standing with balloons and signs with pictures of us and the pups that read "Mom, Will you marry our Dad?". I'd love to say I immediately got it, but I was way too confused and surprised. When I finally figured it out, I spun around to find him down on one knee behind me! It was perfect in every way, sharing that moment with him and some of the people I love the most!
