We met on October 24, 2015 at a bar in downtown Indianapolis. We exchanged numbers and texted for a couple weeks, trying to find a day we both had available. On November 11, 2015 we went on our first date to the Colts vs. Broncos game. We decided we liked each other and that we should go on a couple more dates. December 5, 2015 we went to get lunch at Maggiano's. They gave us each a card to fill out to receive discounts for birthdays and anniversary's. Michelle left the anniversary part blank, because they hadn't had that conversation yet. Luke secretly wrote "December 6." The next day (December 6) we went to the zoo. Luke was adamant to find frogs at the zoo (they're Michelle's favorite animal), but little did we know they don't have frogs. As we were leaving, Luke suggested we go to the butterfly garden. We sat down on bench and were talking, then Luke said, "If you don't find me un-bear-able yet, would you want to be my girlfriend." Michelle said yes and we continued to date for 4 more years. We have made going to Maggiano's on December 6 our anniversary tradition. We have enjoyed many trips and adventures together over the years. Fast forward to December 6, 2019. We went to Maggiano's, like we always do, and ate way too much food, like we always do. This time we headed downtown to look at the Monument Circle lit up. We walked around a bit, and then Luke got down on one knee and asked Michelle to marry him. She said yes! Our parents were hiding around the corner secretly watching the whole thing and we celebrated with them on The Circle. We went back to Luke's parents house to celebrate some more. Little did Michelle know, the basement was full of some of our closes family and friends! Now, we are starting our next adventure of marriage! We can not wait to celebrate with all of you on June 19, 2021!! Let the adventure begin!!
