Andrew and I were both new to the online dating scene, but we decided to give it a try and ended up matching with each other. After talking for some time we decided to set up a time to meet. Things kept getting in the way, which caused me to cancel the date twice and left Andrew wanting to give up on me. I'm so glad he didn't :) 

Febraury 26, 2017 we met up for frozen yogurt and spent the whole night talking about all of the connections we had with both being elementary school teachers. After our frozen yogurt we weren't ready for the date to end but didn't have any ideas on what to do on a winter night that also happened to be a school night. We spent the rest of the night driving around Andrew's hometown which is where I taught. By the end of the night Andrew decided to pull the car over on top of a hill that overlooked the town and we had our first kiss! 

We spent the next three years learning about each other, going on many adventures, and even living together in a house that could only be described as a frat boy's paradise. It tested our relationship but it ended up being one of the most fun years we've had thus far. 

October 3, 2020 Andrew and his daughter Gia decided it would a great idea to go watch the sunrise. This is something we've never done, but Andrew is always coming up with crazy ideas that I never thought anything of it. The morning of at 4:45am was a crisp 30 degrees and I refused to get out of bed to go with them. After some convincing we were in the car, with me not knowing where we were going to watch the sunrise. Andrew pulled over to the same spot where we had our first kiss, again not thinking anything of it. Andrew set up his tripod to film the sunrise as he would do on any occassion. As the sun started to rise Andrew and Gia got down on one knee and asked if I was ready for more adventure and proposed! I was beyond shocked and excited as tears came down my face. I am so excited to start this next adventure with Andrew and Gia for the rest of my life.
