We're Finally Doing This Thing!

We actually went to middle school together! We always had mutual friends growing up. In 2012, while we were both in college, mutual friends got us to meet up one night at a bonfire and the rest is history!

For my "birthday present", he got me a hot air balloon ride in Temecula, CA. We had to book our ride for 5:30am for a sunrise ride. Since it was early, early morning at a winery, they served muffins and mimosas! They let us take bottles of champagne on the hot air balloon and I didn't know Ryan was having champagne because he was nervous, I just thought he was having a good time! When the balloon finally landed, he asked me to take a photo while the balloon was deflating and when I wasn't paying attention, he got down on one knee and popped the question! Then the rest of the day, we went wine tasting in Temecula to celebrate with our friends from California!
