In September 2021, Sam and Sarah take a trip to Tampa for a football game. Sam invites his parents down for the game and Sarah decides to invite hers to spend the weekend at the beach. Presumably that was all the trip was to be, at least in Sarah’s mind...

The first night started with a Buccaneer win, the second day was spent enjoying the beach. After coming in from the beach and getting ready to go out Sarah’s mom, Cheryl, suggested to go to the beach to get family pictures. The walk to the beach began and Sarah expected nothing more than some pictures in her near future. When arriving at the beach Sarah noticed a wedding proposal set up to the side. She quickly became annoyed, thinking ‘oh great, another person getting married that isn’t me’. She had no idea it was for her! Sam pulled her over and dropped to a knee. She was so surprised/in shock when he asked the question, she responded with “thank you” instead of saying yes!

And that is Sarah & Sam's story. September marked 4 1/2 years, now only a lifetime to go!
