I remember the first day we met. I showed up at your house to pickup a friend. I had no idea who you were, or that you'd even be there. You answered the door and Im pretty sure you just woke up cause your hair was a mess. I didn't catch your name, but that didn't matter. A few short days went by, and there I was, at your doorstep again. Me and my friends were going out to get some lunch and I offered if you'd like to come. You were a bit hesitant at first, but you said "sure, I need some socks first." Mind you, it's the middle of summer, and he's wearing sandals. I thought to myself what in the world, this kids weird. But I guess your my kind of weird cause look where we're at today! We're days, minutes, seconds away from being husband and wife. Our relationship started out as friends. We both weren't looking for anything at the time. Shortly after knowing each other our connection was so strong and genuine. You knew exactly the right things to say and how to make me laugh. On Aug. 12th, 2014 that's when it all started. 2 months passed and we decided to get a dog together. When you get a dog you know it's true love. Carl's always been there for us, between my dad getting a heart transplant to my memaws passing. He made sure to take care of things if my dad wasn't home. Fast forward 4 yrs, Carl decides to propose on Dec. 24th, 2018 on Christmas Eve in our apartment living room while opening our first early Christmas present. We Both like to do a silly gift the night of Christmas Eve. I give Carl his gift, which is camo bandaids, lol. I pick a small pink sparkly box, and im thinking its going to be something cute/nice cause its in the cutest box ever. Well, I get hair ties. Which by the way, I was happy for because I did need them, but I wasn't to excited with the gift. haha. Well as I turn around, what do you know, Carl is on one knee and I started crying of pure joy. I of course said YES! And this finally leads up to today. I can't wait to marry my best friend.
