We met Sept 9, 2011 at the Vogue Nightclub in Indianapolis while out with friends. After our first date we knew we had found something special. We’ve been inseparable ever since. We knew we were meant to be when we took our first vacation together. After spending a week in the same place together 24/7, we realized we enjoyed each other’s company so much that we wanted to continue to grow our relationship. We both enjoy dinner/movie dates and spending as much time as we can with our son. Although we have a lot of similar interests, including traveling and spending time with family and friends, our biggest joy is taking care of Ayden. He has only made our bond stronger and continues to bring us joy every day. He has taught us so much about being good parents, strong individuals and better people. In April 2018 we went to the Dominican Republic on vacation. It was a complete surprise to me when a few of our closest friends showed up to join us. We were having such a great time hanging out with everyone when Andre gave me an even better surprise by proposing right on the beach! I love how patient Andre is with Ayden and I. He has a heart of gold and he will do anything for anyone. He is an amazing provider and he is truly my best friend. I love how he always keeps it raw honest with me even when it’s not what I want to hear. I love how Racqueal pushes me to be a better man/father and to be the best man I can be. I love how she tries to make me smile when everything has gone wrong. I love the way she balances our life with her job, Ayden and keeping the household together. I love everything about her, especially her smile even when she’s angry. In the middle of planning for our wedding, we are also in the process of buying our first home together and we are so looking forward to starting this new chapter in our lives. We’re so thankful for everyone who is able to come out to celebrate with us and for those wishing us well from afar!
