We're Getting Married!

We met during our senior year at Urbana High School. In our fall semester we had three of four classes together, one of which I was the student aid for Michael's math class. We became great friends and eventually graduated and went off to our separate colleges. While Michael was at Villanova and I was at West Virginia, we kept in touch over the years, however it wasn't until November 2017 that we got together over Thanksgiving weekend with friends and finally admitted how we felt about each other. Since then it's been indescribable.

After dating for six months, I finally moved back from Utah to start a new job in Baltimore, MD. Michael and I decided to go to Chincoteague, VA for a mini vacation before Michael started graduate school and I began my new job. Chincoteague is a place my family has visited every year since before I was born and Michael was coming with me for the first time. While with family on Assateague Island, aka Little Beach, Michael asked to take me on a walk down the beach to see the wild ponies. We reached the end of the island, and as I begun to turn around to start the walk back, I looked back for a second and saw Michael getting on his knee. On that day Michael stole my heart forever, and now I am impatiently waiting to steal his last name.
