How We Met...

We owe it all to my sister Heidi and John's friend Dillon! Heidi and Dillon worked together at Georginas and John would come in to eat/drink and visit Dillon. Heidi (being the good sister that she is) noticed John and of course had to get the scoop about him from Dillon. Once she heard that he was a stand up guy, she introduced us!

The Proposal

John and I were in Florida for spring break with his parents. We had been dating just over a year at this point. On our first night there, John and I took a walk on the beach. It was about sunset time and just beautiful! After walking about 10 minutes we stopped and I was taking pictures of the water, when I turned around John was on 1 knee! We joke that I never actually said yes because I kept repeating "are you serious?!" LOL. Everyone asked if I saw it coming and I honestly didn't! I was completely shocked, it was perfect.
