We're Getting Married!

NERD ALERT!....We met in Physics class at St. Mary's College. Alex spotted Noelle on the first day, thought she was cute, and decided to sit in front of her and her friend. Throughout the semester, we made small talk during down time in class. Alex missed class one day just before finals, so he messaged Noelle on Facebook to ask her for her notes from class and used this as a ploy to also get her number. After texting back and forth a bit, Alex asked Noelle out on a date. A few months later, we were officially boyfriend and girlfriend, and the rest is history!

We took a trip to Napa to celebrate Noelle's birthday. Alex set up wine tasting for us at Vine Cliff Winery. When we arrived at Vine Cliff, we were introduced to the chef at the property who had prepared a picnic lunch for us to enjoy with our tasting. We were then led up a hill to an area of the property that overlooked Napa Valley, where our wine and lunch awaited us. After enjoying our time together for a bit, the chef offered to take our photo with the amazing views in the background. During this photo-op, our beloved dog Riley, came running up to us with a white ribbon and ring box around her neck. Alex dropped to his knee and Noelle said "YES!!". Then both our parents appeared in excitement and we spent the rest of the day celebrating together.
