How we met

September 4, 2015

I walked into the Naval Academy gym one day to gain some muscle, and ended up gaining something else: the love of my life! As I was doing a set of bicep curls, I saw Jimmy and jokingly said, "Hey. Cute blue rim." Obviously wooed by my amazing pickup line, he asked me out on a date that same night. The rest is history!

The Proposal

November 23, 2017

When Jimmy came home to Milwaukee with me for Thanksgiving, he asked me over and over when we were going to go to Wehr Nature Center (my favorite place to hike back home). Since he was usually the opposite of excited about being outside in the frozen tundra that is Wisconsin, I definitely could tell he was up to something! Early on Thanksgiving morning, we went to Wehr and he asked if we could walk over to the waterfall. When we got there, he said "hmmm.. can we actually go to the other side?" At this point I definitely knew what he was trying to do, and we walked about 30 minutes to get to the other side. When we got there, he set my phone up on a rock and started a video, saying that he "wanted to take a selfie". I laughed, but didn't let on that I knew what he was up to. When the phone was set up, he got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. It was the sweetest proposal and the perfect location, and we still laugh about the fact that I figured out his plan!
