Matt and Anna have been a big part of each other’s lives for over a decade. They officially met for the first time when Anna was a freshman in high school and Matt was a senior. Anna’s first impression was along the lines of “Ew he’s really cocky”. Which she definitely learned quickly once they became friends was definitely not the case! A few months later they met again through a mutual friend Blake and clicked almost instantly. From that point forward Matt, Anna, and the rest of that friend group became inseparable! Many nights were spent riding back roads, sitting in Matt’s parents garage, and out at the “Farm”. Matt quickly became someone Anna could lean on and one of the most loyal people she had in her life. They spent the next 10 years doing life together as one of each other’s best friends. They have been there for each other throughout so many different seasons of each other’s lives and watched each other grow into the people they are today. From laughing together, crying together, watching each other become parents, and grieving the loss of loved ones together there have been so many changes take place over the years that they have known each other that they have helped each other navigate. One thing that has stayed constant however is that they will always be there for each other no matter what. It wasn’t until two years ago however that the bond and friendship they shared took a step in a direction that neither one of them ever saw coming. Matt took a leap of faith and made a move! In that moment it was like everything clicked and Matt and Anna were both exactly where they were meant to be. They had found a home in each other and pieces of the both of their hearts that were once empty were immediately filled. Since that day their love has only grown stronger with each day that passes and they have brought each other more happiness than they have ever known! Life really showed them both that sometimes the best thing for you has really been right there in front of you the whole time ❤️
