We would walk and talk in a park by his house and sit on this bench for our relationship talks before deployments and other big moments in our relationship. Often times they were challenging conversations and weren't always happy. Whenever we would walk by after that for random things, I told Conor after those talks that I wanted to make a purely happy memory in that park. Conor always insisted on pushing off Lindsey’s attempts to make that happen, knowing inside that he wanted it to be the happiest memory he could possibly think of. On a Saturday afternoon, surrounded by good friends either tucked into the background or hiding in the grass with a camera, Conor got down on one knee and asked Lindsey to marry him! Definitely counts as a happy memory there. They are so excited to spend their lives together.
