We first met on the cross country team during college at the University of Texas at Dallas. We became friends over summer before school even started.

For our first date, we had barbeque and went to the Dallas Arboretum. It was a lot of fun and very exciting, however I (Joseph) would not recommend going to the arboretum in January......


I also made a special dessert for Elizabeth (pictured below).

Our Engagement!

I (Joseph) surprised Chimitt in Austin while on our winter break. Usually I am at home in Cincinnati all break, but I flew to Austin right before New Years came around. With the help of Matthew, Elizabeth's brother, I snuck up on Chimitt while she was at an overlook in Austin called Mount Bonnell. She was so surprised but said yes! It was a great day.
