Story
Joel and I met through mutual friends during our days at the University of Kentucky. And the universe must have been looking out for us because Joel almost did not come to the event that we ended up meeting each other at for the first time, and Joel was not even going to UK at the time. But I will never forget meeting that red headed energetic guy for the first time.
And totally out of style for me I made the first move, but it was worth it. Because here we are almost 4 years later engaged and getting ready to be married. It has been a wild ride from college, to graduations, to more college, moves, jobs and promotions. I don't think we could have done it without each other and our friends and family. We can't wait to share our big day with you all and to see what our future holds for us!

How did he propose?
Joel spent Christmas with my family. I had just gotten home from working Christmas day, we were opening presents and I thought we were all done. Joel pointed out a bag that had not been opened and said it was for me. I found a card in there with a letter that Joel had written and a gift card and thought that was it! Joel asked if there was anything else in there and I said "no the rest is trash". So he said "I think I put something else In there". So he knelt down to "look" through the bag, pulled out the ring and asked me to marry him! I was sitting right in front of our Christmas tree and my parents were just sitting on the couch talking and nearly missed the whole thing!
