We're getting married!

It was 2017 and I was retaking this genetics class at Pitt-Greensburg. I received a message on instagram from someone in my class that needed help and wanted to meet up. We got to talking and she said "I think you and my fiancé's younger brother would really hit it off. I'll give you his number when I get home." I reached out to him that night and he replied, "She told me to expect a message from some girl." We met up and hung out. It was great.

We have been planning to go out for New Years' Eve for a month when I found out that there is a festival called the First Night in the cultural district of downtown Pittsburgh. We got there just in time for the fireworks to begin to kick off the festival. Nick told me, "We need to find someone to take our photo." Knowing how cool the background would be with the fireworks taking off, I went along with it. The fireworks started taking off and I turned around to get Nick's attention when he dropped down to one knee. "You're the best thing that ever happened to me and I will love you forever. Will you marry me?" Truly the best night ever.
