FOREVER

It all really began way back in 2011 when Anna was Tim's Thrive volunteer at Bayside Church. Our paths crossed over and over again through the years, so naturally we became friends. Tim brought her Starbucks at work and her students/parents were convinced they were dating. Anna told everyone he was just a friend from church. (little to her knowledge) Tim continued to reach out and shoot his shot, but to no avail as Anna didn't see him as serious. Then one day Timothy became intentional. Things were different. 12 months later, he brought her Starbucks after work (again) and invited himself in for her family dinner this time. He kissed her and confessed his love for her in hopes that she would want to spend the rest of her life with him. She agreed to go on a date first and see what happened from there. The first date was like pausing in time. The Fleetwood Mac song, "Everywhere" came on and Timothy looked over at Anna and sang the lyrics and told her he wanted exactly that, forever. It was in this moment that they both realized this was not the last date...and they wanted to choose each other. They fell in love and knew immediately they were meant to live this life together. "I want to be everywhere with you..."
