We knew each other in high school and after a few years, different life lessons and experiences, Ryan started a game of Words with Friends on Facebook, who would have thought? After playing for weeks, we finally got around to seeing each other and never looked back. Now we have three beautiful little girls together in a loving home. We couldn’t have asked for anything more and are beyond excited for this next chapter!

It was Christmas morning and we were all so excited that Santa came. Ryan had bought the girls their own jewelry box and it was the first gift he handed to them. Inside were Christmas rings and as I was trying to get Evelyn interested in opening her gift and trying her Christmas ring on, Ryan asked mommy if she would like a ring too. A little confused, I said I already have one and turned to show him my Christmas ring (since Evelyn wouldn’t put hers on) and once I showed him, Ryan was kneeling on one knee with this gorgeous aquamarine engagement ring, and said “will you marry me?” Obviously I said yes! We're so excited to celebrate this next chapter in our lives with you.
