Matt:

Matt is currently going to Medical School at the University of North Dakota. He is just finishing his 3rd year in Fargo, ND working at the hospitals and will be starting his last year at UND in July 2010 in Bismarck, ND (also working in the hospitals). He will graduate from Medical School May 15, 2011, and will be pursuing a career in Emergency Medicine. He will then began a 3 year Emergency Medicine Residency, in one of three cities we are both currently interested in. He went to Minot State for undergrad and received his B.S. in Computer Science and a minor in Mathematics.

Matt loves music and plays guitar and used to play sax pretty well too. He works too hard, but it pays off because he's accomplished so much in his life. But in his free time he loves to get out with friends to movies, dinner, games, you name it. His other big passion is flying since he received his Pilot's license quite a few years ago. And more currently, he's received his Ham radio license, KD0IEF, in June 2009.

Emily:

Emily is currently working full time as the Mens Department Lead at Gordmans Department store in Fargo, ND. She graduated from North Dakota State University in May 2009 and recieved her B.S. in Retail Merchandising, with a minor in both Interior Design and Business.

Emily is excited for all the new turns her life has given her. Meeting and falling in love with Matt, and joining him as he pursues his passion of being a doctor. She loves her town, but is ready to experience life outside of Fargo. In her free time, she loves to listen to music (all types) as well as play some bass guitar and piano. She also loves being creative. She loves scrapbooking, decorating, and has written three novels that she had put into hardcover form. She also loves talking and hanging out with friends, whether its sitting around the apartment having a drink or going to a movie.

Date of Proposal: February 14, 2010

How it Happened:

The day before Valentine's Day I was warned that I would have a "puzzle" to figure out to get one of my presents. I had no idea what to expect! Valentine's Day morning comes and I make Matt's favorite caramel rolls and we exchanged gifts. After he opened mine (I got him some chocolate covered cherries with a box of 20 reasons why I love him, slippers, and lounge pants), he gave me what I was told part #1 of my 3 part present. It was pink orchids and a card. It was about 11:30am and I asked if I could have part #2, which was actually the puzzle to the 3rd and last part. He allowed me to have it, but warned me that if I figured it out before dinner at 4pm (we went to Johnny Corinos) I would still not be able to receive it until AFTER we ate. I didn't think I would figure it out, so I said okay and he ran to his car. When he came back, he had a large brown bear holding a heart saying "Be Mine". I was immediately giddy just for the bear because I'd been asking for a large cute stuffed animal for over a year. After he gave me the bear he then informed me that the bear was in fact the puzzle. Completely puzzled myself, I stared at the bear. I looked all over and there was no note, no nothing attached to him. After about 40 minutes or so, I thought well maybe the bear makes noise? I began squeezing his paws but nothing happened. When I checked the center of the bear for the speaker box, I felt ANOTHER box....the size of a jewelry box. After freaking out a bit, I had to put the bear away so I would forget about it - could it be a ring? THE ring? As time went by, I would keep going to get the bear to feel it again. I even shook it, and without touching it, it made a clicking noise, but when I touched it, it didn't make a noise at all! I so confused and so freaked out. I was texting my mom the whole time asking her what she thought it was, and neither one of us could figure it out. Eventually, as it got closer to 4pm, I was told that I would be able to open my present before we went to eat with a stipulation. Without knowing the stipulation, I said ok because I was so curious. Sure enough, Matt took the bear and carefully cut the chest open. He made me reach inside, and there was a white box with a red heart on it in the spot of the bears heart. As I opened the white box, hands shaking, I saw the words "A Cutting Edge". The ring was the ring I had fallen in love with back in September 2009. I balled, he proposed, and here we are today. :) Oh! And the stipulation was that he took my phone away until after supper so I couldn't tell anyone for about 2 hours after it happened!
