We met while we were both in undergrad at Lynchburg College in VA. I was a freshman and Greg was a junior. It was only a coincidence that Greg was on the track and field team and I was recruited to throw for the team as well. Before we even started dating we became very close friends, we worked out together, went to the library together, and Greg even introduced me to the local tanning place in town. LOL! We became even closer as the school year went on and it just so happened to be that I was going to Massachusetts to visit friends in the summer, and Greg convinced me to visit him while I was there. After that summer we started dating and dated for about 6 years, and the rest is history!
I honestly didn't know when it was coming... We took a trip to visit some friends that lived in Charleston, SC for New Years and spent the weekend with them. I knew things were a little fishy when he made sure that my nails were done. I actually remember freaking out because I couldn't get to a place to get them done, so I had to do them myself....go figure. They ended up looking really crappy and I was just not about it anymore. I had suspicion that he was going to ask me on NYE, so I dressed all nice and NOTHING! LOL.... So the next morning when we were visiting the famous pineapple fountain in Charleston, he decided to do it. Plot twist....I was extremely hungover and it was SO hot outside. Both Greg and I only brought wintery clothes because it had been so cold at home, and it ended up being almost 80 degrees that day! It was about 12:29-30pm when I told Greg I wanted to take a picture with the pineapple fountain and then leave because I was so hot and hungover... And at 12:31pm on January 1st, 2019 Greg got down on one knee and asked me to marry him!!!! Let's just say after that my hangover was gone and we celebrated with mimosas!!!! Cheers!
