How We Met...

We met during our junior year of high school during a practice for an intense game of Powder Puff football. Brian was the coach and I was trying to be a player.

My athletic abilities were not getting noticed, so a mutual friend introduced me to Brian. After that, I got some playing time but not much… That night started our lives together!

The Engagement...
Date: January 27th, 2007

Brian reserved a private dining room at an intimate restaurant in Capitol Hill, Washington D.C. We had a very romantic dinner; which included, rose petals, candles, and champagne.

Then, to my surprise, we had a horse and carriage waiting for us as we left the restaurant. Covered with a blanket, we trotted around town and stopped in front of the Capitol Building. We got out and Brian proposed with a beautiful family heirloom.
