As many of you know Richard and I hung out with a lot of the same people throughout high school and our early 20s. Then a few years ago my roommates and I hosted a game night at our house. Richard and his then girlfriend were invited by my roommate and about a year later when we were both single we started talking, eventually went on our first date, and then started our lives together. In 2017 we moved back to the Yakima area and had our beautiful daughter in 2018.

Richard asked me to be his wife in front of my parents, sister, and close family friends while on a crabbing & cabin trip over the 4th of July weekend.
