We crossed paths in Las Vegas, Nevada when David was in town for a softball league competition. Our meeting was serendipitous, but it felt like destiny had brought us together.
On December 24th, 2022, Thuriya and I had initially planned to spend time with my family in Williamsburg, Virginia. However, fate had a different idea. We found ourselves driving into Colonial Williamsburg for a tour, only to have it canceled due to the bitterly cold weather. But the cold wasn't going to deter me. Undaunted, I took Thuriya on an impromptu, self-guided tour behind the mayor's mansion in the charming gardens. It was there, in that serene setting, that I mustered the courage to ask him to be my husband. His resounding "YES" warmed my heart more than any winter day ever could. We're so excited to celebrate this next chapter in our lives with you.
