One of the best parts of this job is being able to partake in such special times with my friends. I know Jason and Marti through some of the best people in my life, my Crossfit community. When I first met Jason I thought "this guy is so funny and sweet, how could he possibly be single?!" Then a few months later I heard he started talking to this girl, Marti. My first thought was, she has to be just as funny as Jason, and I was totally right. These two are a RIOT! Always cracking jokes and making everyone around them laugh, it's so obvious their care and love for one another and their friends.
I was lucky enough to be at Jason's proposal to Marti, along with about 40 of their closest friends and family, because Marti had planned it as Jason's SURPRISE 30th birthday. Little did she know he turned the tables on her. She planned this great surprise of a "private whiskey tasting" at Gamblin Whiskey House, in the CWE, for just the two of them. At least that is what Jason thought, for a few days until he saw the Facebook invite up on a co-workers computer. He took the opportunity to turn the surprise around on Marti and turn it into an Engagement Party, flying in his family from Texas and inviting all her closest friends and family. It was so fun to see his "surprised" face when they walked in for a birthday party and then Jason get's down on one knee and says "they aren't here for me."
They have a beautiful start to their love story and I just cannot wait to see the rest.
