Thanks Lauren and Phil!
How we met....

Adam and I met in December of 1998, (our Sophomore year of High School) when one of my best friends , Lauren started dating one his cousin/best friend Phil. We were friends for a few months and both had huge crushes on one another but never told anyone about it (I even tried to hook him up with my best friend May who will be my Maid of Honor in our upcoming wedding). As time went on be became good friends and started talking a lot. We FINALLY confessed to each other how we felt and decided to start dating in March of 1999. After less than a year of dating we knew we wanted to be together forever (even though we were only 16 years old.) We dated all through High School and my College years. In 2006 when Adam started in the Boston Police Academy we moved in together. On Christmas Eve on 2008, almost 10 years to the day that we met, Adam proposed and we are planning a July 2010 Wedding.

The Proposal...

A Very Merry Christmas
The Proposal...

On Christmas Eve Adam and I usually go to his parents house and then my Uncle’s House. After leaving Adam’s parent’s house Adam insisted we went back to our apartment to drop off our gifts. I told him I would rather just go to my Uncle’s house and he reminded me that my spinach artichoke dip I had taken from his mom’s house would go bad if we left it in the car while in my uncle’s house. I agreed and we stopped off at home. As I was rearranging the fridge to try and fit the dip I heard Adam’s doing something in the bedroom. I was hoping he wouldn’t take long because I wanted to get going. He called to me from the living room and said he wanted to talk to me about something. I immediately got nervous because he never really says that. I went into the living room and sat down in a chair. Adam got on his knee (and I still had no idea), he told me that he was sorry that he had been snippy with me and that it was just because he was really nervous about something. He put his hand in his pocket and I FINALLY figured out what he was doing and SCREAMED in his face and covered my eyes. He started saying all these great things (which I don’t remember). Half way through I interrupted him to see if he asked me dad. Once I saw the ring I wanted to put it on but Adam reminded me that I hadn’t said yes and I couldn’t put on the ring until I did. But, he got so nervous he forgot to ask. So then he asked and of course I accepted.
