About Me:

I am originally from Northern California, but moved to Boston in September 2001. I enjoy traveling and seeing new places. I love photographs and wish I had more time to work on putting together my photo albums. I love playing board games and party games, and am quite competitive. I volunteer for three organizations: The USO of New England, Santa Claus Anonymous, Inc., and Big Sister of Greater Boston. I also donate platelets monthly at the Red Cross Apheresis center in Boston. When we’re not out volunteering or spending time with friends or family, you would probably find me and Mr. Hydrangea entwined on the couch, watching our favorite shows on TV (we love our TiVo’s).

How We Met:

We met on Match.com in July 2005. After a few emails through the site, we set up a date to meet at a bar/restaurant and hit it off. Only a week later, we made it official and became exclusive.

The Engagement Story:

I love Butterflies, so he planned an outing to the Butterfly Place, an atrium where butterflies roam free in the flowers and trees. We walked around a bit, and all of a sudden he was down on one knee. He said, “I love you and want to spend the rest of my life with you. Will you marry me?" I said, "Yes, of course". Neither of us knew what to do at that point, and we were a little awkward for a few minutes. Was he supposed to put the ring on my hand, or what I supposed to take it out of the box? Eventually, I put the ring on myself, and we hugged and kissed. I could feel his heart beating really hard and fast, which surprised me since we’d talked about marriage for almost a year. He knew I would say yes. But, my heart was pounding too – we were very excited to start the new chapter of our lives together.
