Tale as old as time

Russ and Allison met in high school. After graduation, Russ went to College in PA and Allison stayed in Rochester. Throughout college, Russ and Allison remained friends and would often meet up with friends when Russ was in town. In 2011, Russ sent Allison a beautiful bouquet of roses and asked her to be his girlfriend by requesting it on facebook. For the past 6 years, Russ and Allison have gone on many adventures and done many things. One of the biggest passions for the both of them is Disney. At first, Russ was not much of a Disney fanatic. But with much work done by Allison, Russ is now also a fanatic. Russ is a huge sports fanatic and has converted Allison into one also. Saturday Notre Dame games and nights watching the Buffalo Sabres play are often things that Allison and Russ enjoy doing. Allison and Russ also enjoy spending summers at the thousand islands and going to concert with friends. Throughout the entirety of their relationship, Allison made it very clear that it was her dream to get engaged at Disney. Prior to their latest trip in September, Allison was very hopeful that this would be the year that Russ would make her dreams come true. After a few conversations before their trip, Allison believed that Russ would be waiting until another time to propose. On their first day at Disney, Russ convinced Allison to go to the Magic Kingdom. After a long day of traveling and the start of rain, Allison became grumpy and ready to return to the hotel. Russ convinced her to take one last picture for the day. Once they were in front of the castle, Russ got down on one knee and proposed. The moment was perfect and the rest of the vacation was truly magical.
