We met through mutual friends when I transferred to Sartell High School. We didn't really talk much, but had each other on Facebook. In July 2019 we reconnected at the raceway in Sauk Rapids where a friend of ours was racing we started talking and hanging out more.
He kept asking me if I wanted to go on a date sometime and I kept avoiding it until for some reason I thought to myself "screw it, what's the worse that could happen". Our date was us sitting in the Grizzly's parking lot for a couple hours with one of my friends waiting for his roommate. From there we went to a party, if you could even call it that. Eventually we went to his parents house and hung out there. We sat up all night talking and laughing. He asked me out at 5 in the morning and after spending hours with him, I agreed. We've been inseparable since.
It was a week or so before Thanksgiving and I had felt sick and tired for days, I even went home sick from school one day. I just thought I was getting sick and didn't think anything of it. Flash forward to November 28th and I finally took a test to find out since more and more signs had began to show. I didn't even have to wait the whole waiting period to get my results back, I was pregnant and we were going to be starting a family.
It was after our gender reveal party, we went back to the apartment we had been living in and started to relax for the night. He seemed a little off and then disappeared for awhile. He came out of the bathroom and into the living room where I was, got down on one knee and said "Abigayle Christina Streff, will you marry me?" It caught me off gaurd but obviously I said yes.
