The first time we officially met was in Spanish 1 at North Scott High School. Of course, Ty was the cute and funny guy in class and I was shy and thought he was SO cool. Anyways, we remained acquaintances and would say hi if we saw each other in the hall but not much more than that. About three years later, we started to see each other more and reconnected via social media. On February 13, 2016 we went on our first official date and we both new that something felt very different and very right. Fast-forward to two and a half years later when Ty bought a ring and got down on one knee.

Ty bought the ring at the end of June, 2018 and I asked him probably a thousand times about when he would propose. I couldn't wait! September 16, 2018 started out like a normal Sunday. I went to church with some of my best friends and we went to lunch at a someone's house after church. Little did I know, my friends were trying to get us all out the door in a timely manner because something big was going to happen. All I knew was that we were going to have a photo shoot in the park for Bryn's (one of my best friends) job so she could practice photographing clothing. Anyways, we got back to our town-home to change and they made sure I was in a white dress. I suspected NOTHING. We got to Brookside park and I walked down the stairs. When I got to the bottom of the stairs, I saw someone walking towards me. I couldn't believe that the person walking towards me was Ty! I was in shock. We met in the middle and he got down on one knee and of course i said YES!
