Ross and Andy were in the same West Point graduating class. Naturally, their moms became "battle buddies" through their experiences. At this time Pete and Sierra were applying to colleges. Their moms talked about how much we had in common, even pushed them to meet at an Army Navy game. After their awkward initial encounter they didn't talk for a while until Pete asked Sierra to the Yearling Winter Weekend Military Ball in New York. The rest is history.
3/27/21 was our 5 year anniversary. As an anniversary gift, Pete reserved a room at a beachside resort on the west side, known for its sunset views. After going for a swim, Pete and Sierra got ready for dinner. While Sierra was taking her time getting ready, Pete tried to hurry her along so they could get a “sunset photo”. Pete finally succeeded, just before sunset, and they walked down to the water. Pete set his phone up to get the picture, got down on one knee, and Sierra said yes!
