It all started in third grade, Mrs. Wise’s class. Michael switched schools and ended up with me at St. Peter's Catholic School. I actually asked him to be my boyfriend on the playground one day! The summer after third grade, I moved schools and we both went our separate ways.
After years of going to different schools, I reached out through Instagram. Michael had liked one of my photos and I *slid into his DM’s*. We then exchanged phone numbers and planned our first date to the movies. It was there at the movies that we knew there was a spark!! These series of events led to 7 years of dating, living together, and finally getting married!
I came home from a long day of work on a random Tuesday night. Michael had been off of work that day and asked if I would like to go on a walk to get the mail and then go out to dinner. Confused as to why we would walk to the Post Office instead of driving on our way out, I agreed. It was a nice night and the sunset looked pretty! We walked to the end of our street pier and I started taking pictures of the sun setting on the water. Michael moved out of the way to not be in the picture but really was down on one knee behind me! Took me by complete surprise!
