We're getting Married!!

Ryan and I met online. We started talking over Facebook while he was with the military over in Poland. I didn't think much of it at the time because he was overseas. When he returned home to Ohio we started talking even more and even calling each other weekly. I kept waiting for him to ask me on a date, but he never did. So I asked him on a date. I was really nervous to meet him so I opted for a public location of a local park. I was afraid it was going to be an extremely awkward first date, however I was surprised at how easily conversation flowed and how much I enjoyed being around him. From there the rest is history we went on many more dates, traveled on a couple of trips, and spent 2 years getting to know one another.

After 2 years of dating Ryan proposed to me on the 4th of July (My favorite holiday) in Clearwater Beach, Florida (My favorite place). However the best part of it wasn't where we were or when it was it was how raw and emotional that moment truly was. Ryan had tears in his eyes and was shaking when we he asked me to marry him and I could really see how much I meant to him in that moment and that's what I will always remember most about that day.
