Brett and I actually met on my 18th birthday at boat night in Port Huron. We hung out and ended the night at Coney Island eating pancakes and waffles with a bunch of friends. The real story starts the next night which would be Brett's high school graduation party. Drew and Carmen (our best friends) were dating at the time and Carmen knew I had a crush on Brett, so we went to the party together. I did not have any intentions going to the party, but to maybe do some flirting and see if Brett was also interested. By the end of the night Brett had kissed me and the rest is kind of history. We have been together for almost ten years. Long distance, college, three states and two countries. Time has seem to fly by and we are so excited to start this next chapter in our lives. We cannot wait to celebrate with everyone we love!<3
It all happened when we were on a camping trip with his family. One of the days I really wanted to go to the beach, so Brett and I went to the beach with his two sisters and brother-in-law. It was actually a very windy day, but it was still warm and we enjoyed our time in the sun. Angela, Brett's sister wanted to go for a walk and find cool rocks, so we all got up to go rock searching. Brett and I had fallen behind a little, we were looking for good rocks to skip out onto the lake. And after a few throws I bent down to pick one up and when I turn around there Brett was on one knee! I was sooo shocked! Unknown to me everyone we were with knew what was going to happen so that is why they went ahead of us. His sisters got pictures and a video of the surprise. In the years before I had always told Brett I did not care how he proposed as long as it was a complete surprise and he had someone there to capture the raw moment. Both boxes were checked and it was the best day! We celebrate back at the RV with a fun dinner and drinks. We went back to the same beach at sunset and we got some awesome pictures that we will always have to look back on:)
