Brian and I met working at Sears while we were both in college. He would flirt with me and even told our manager I was a distraction and he couldn't get his work done. We switched towns. Brian is from the Chester county area and attended Millersville University while I'm from Lancaster County and went to West Chester University. After being friends for a few months, we went on our first date at the Akron Family Restaurant. We ended up there after driving around Ephrata without finding another place. After dating for about a month, Brian brought flowers to my apartment and asked me to be his girlfriend. That was way back in February 2008. We've had quite an adventure ever since. After years of spending the weekends together and traveling back and forth, we finally moved in together. We found a lovely apartment in Ephrata. In November, we were out doing some holiday shopping when we wandered into Zales and picked out a ring. A few weeks later after the ring was resized, we went to Longwood Gardens with our great friends, Natasha, Chuck, and Raymond to see a Longwood Christmas. We went to the conservatory. Brian took me in front of the beautiful Christmas tree. He got down on one knee, told me he loved me and asked me to marry him. Of course, I said yes! We can't wait to share our wedding day with all of our closest friends and family. |
