Yes, we have been together for almost a decade. I don't know how many times I have explained that Bert and I have been together for a longgg time. We know, we were there! We met at Chautauqua Institution during a lifeguarding course in the Spring of 2009. We began dating that summer. Since then we have been through a lot, different schools, long distances, and eventually landing in Washington DC together. Last September I booked us flights to France to go to Paris and Annecy. Bert decided that was the time, in Annecy, a small town that his mother had visited years ago. However, he couldn't wait for Annecy. We fell in love with Paris and on our last morning there he proposed. We have been through so much together over this wonderful decade. Only two people made for each other could have done it. Afterall, me and him, we're in a club now.🎈
