We’re getting married!

Hope and Steve first met in 2016 in their freshman year of college at Quinnipiac University. During thanksgiving break that year, Steve had surgery to repair his (1st) torn ACL. When he came back, he was on crutches and needed help carrying things to class or getting food from the cafeteria. Hope offered to help Steve get around and they began walking to classes together and hanging out together everyday. They were inseperable. Everyone around them could see what they couldn't: that the two of them were starting to fall for each other. They made things official and started dating in April of 2017. Fast forward eight years (and one cat adoption) later and Steve asked Hope to marry him on top of the Sleeping Giant Mountain, overlooking Quinnipiac University. Don’t worry, he showed Ellie, their beloved calico cat, the ring first. This past November they adopted their second cat, Seamus, who has completed their little family.
