We're getting married!

We met through our love of dogs! Ryan was a dog trainer with a local dog daycare facility and I was the new owner of a Weimaraner puppy. He was not very excited to work with a crazy Weimaraner! But he did an awesome job training my little crazy pup! I later got a part-time job at the dog daycare that we started talking. I realized he was kind of a nerd just like me! It was always conversations about dogs or Xbox. After a couple months he asked me if I wanted to go to a haunted house (it was halloween) so I said yes! And the rest is history!

We had lived together for years, so marriage was a topic we had discussed a few times, but not something on my mind that night! It was just your average Thursday. Ryan was making dinner and cleaning up (taco soup!) when I yelled into the kitchen asking for some salt. In our free time, we had taught our Weimaraner (the puppy that introduced us!) to carry objects from one person to another as a fun party trick for the past year. When I heard him command her to come to me I expected to see her carry in a salt shaker. He followed just behind her, everything as normal. I was wrong! I saw the box and already knew somewhere in my mind what it was, but the first thing out of my mouth was "what is that?!" I took it from her and opened it as he took a knee in front of me!
