We are getting married in Toledo, OH on August 14, 2010!

 We met in highschool while I was working for his parents at their ice cream shop.  We quickly became inseparable!  We went on our first date on June 29, 2004 and have been together ever since.  We were engaged in April of 2009 and are both recent graduates of Central Michigan University.

John will be moving to Oxford, Ohio in June and I have no idea where I will be at that time!  I am currently applying to graduate school and should find out by March where I will be.

Engagement:  Our engagement was very well planned by my fiance without my knowledge.  Just about everybody knew besides me before it happened.

We took a weekend to go up north in Michigan after a particularly stressful week at school.  We always stop in St. Ignace and eat at this little restaurant called the Mackinac Grille.  It sits right on the Straits and you can see Mackinac Island and Canada.  After lunch, John said he had to grab something for me from his car, a present for me being so patient with him over the past few months.  I of course took it a shook it all around on the way down the board walk to the lighthouse on the water.  I guessed it was a puzzle (we do puzzles together) and when I finally got to unwrap it, I saw that it was a puzzle of the two of us!  It said Will you marry me? on it and when I looked up he was down on one knee.  I of course said yes!
