It was a warm summer night in June. We were both involved with our respective ultimate frisbee teams at the University of Minnesota, and had known of each other for some time, but had never really talked much. Our mutual friend, Ratih, was hosting a party for both ultimate teams to attend. Long story short, we talked the whole night and have wanted to keep talking every day since!
It was the second week of living in our new apartment downtown Minneapolis. Tony was about to start a new job the following week, so he had an awesome plan in place - surprise Kalli when she gets home from work with flowers and the proposal, then we'd head back to our old house to celebrate with all of our friends. Well in order to keep this cover, Kalli was under the impression the party later was a farewell party for the house we just moved out of. So, Friday morning rolls around and Kalli is absolutely in love with the new apartment and decides she is going to work from home so she doesn't have to leave. As he scrambles to try and think of an audible, Tony ends up deciding to ask Kalli in the comfort of our own kitchen before dinner and a fantastic night celebrating with friends.
