It was National Margarita Day so naturally my friends and I went to Las Margaritas for drinks. Patrick was our server and had to put up with us the whole night ( I remembered him from the previous time I was there when I stopped him and asked him to fix my drink because my server made it wrong). When I paid my bill, I had left a note on my receipt that said "thanks for always being great! - Katy" with my phone number underneath. He also wont let me live it down that I tipped him bad, but I think he got more out of my number than he would of any amount of money! So I left with my friends and woke up the next morning to a really sweet text from Patrick and that was the beginning of our never ending love story.

It was the week before Christmas and we had a busy week ahead of us. We were going to see The Nutcracker, the BlueJackets were playing the Kings, and on this particular night, he was taking me to Zoo Lights for the first time since i've lived in Ohio. We walked around, had some hot chocolate, and got to see the animals and the beautiful decorations. I already thought it was a magical night just experiencing this with him. Right before we left, we stayed to watch the light show. When it was over, he had asked me to take a picture with him in front of the lights and to my surprise, he got down on one knee and asked if I would spend the rest of my life with him. My heart dropped and without a beat I said YES. That was hands down my favorite moment in history.
