Carolyn and Aaron were both born in the same town of Sarnia, Ontario. It was cool that their parents have been friends since high school. Aaron’s family moved away to Burlington when he was 1 year old. While growing up, Carolyn hung around with Aaron’s relatives and was best friends with his cousin in Sarnia. Then one New Years Eve 3 1/2 years ago, Carolyn and Aaron’s families and a few other families got together to celebrate New Year’s. Carolyn and Aaron reunited for the first time since they babies and they were instantly attracted to each other. It was a great weekend of roller skating, watching football, and hanging out.
After the weekend, the two of them sent emails back and forth, getting to know each other. Aaron finally worked up the nerve to call Carolyn on Valentine’s Day to tell her he was very interested in her. It was a long distance relationship for the first year and a half until they both got into McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario.
Dinner at a little quaint bistro and a hike in the escarpment of Burlington, Ontario was a special day for them when they had their first date and back at the same place three years later Aaron proposed to Carolyn on February 21st. They went to the little bistro for dinner to celebrate their third year of dating. After dinner, Aaron suggested they wander down to the old bridge where they had been on their first date. At first Carolyn didn’t want to go down to the bridge as she was in a short dress and high heels and it had been snowing. Aaron didn’t give in and after 20 minutes of subtle convincing, she agreed and down they went through the snow to the bridge. Aaron grabbed a garbage bag out of the forest and in it were candles that he lit on the bridge. Carolyn hadn’t clued in yet because Aaron is the romantic type and had gone all out on previous dates. When he got down on one knee Carolyn was so surprised but so happy. She said yes.
