Welcome To Our Forever

On August 14th 2015 I rode with a friend of mine who was going to see a friend of hers. They were trying to introduce me to a friend of theirs, kind of like a "blind meet-up". On the ride there I was giving myself a pep talk like..."okay Tia you can do this!" But I said to my friend, "girl I'm not sure about these Red Top guys, I heard they were country and crazy"...we both laughed! When we pulled up I see this tall, black, handsome man who was still in his work clothes, and I was like "OKAY"!! As we spoke and introduced ourselves we started walking and talking and then found ourselves there in front of Rat and Gorgie's house for about three hours. Needless to say the rest is HISTORY!! Thanks again to our friends who introduced us. Day we met: 8-14-2015 Day we coupled: 8-12-2019 Day I said "YES": 12-31-2020 Day we say "I DO": 4-23-2022

On 12/31/2020 we were getting ready to bring in the New Year with some family and friends. So I was preparing food and at the last minute decided to put up a few New Year's decorations.  Well it was also the last day of deer season, and Tron came in from hunting later that afternoon  to say "Oh I invited a few more of my hunting buddies", and I was like "well babe you said just a few of our family and friends not a crowd". He then said it's going to be okay.  So I went on with my day doing what I had to do. Time was flying. People started showing up and I still hadn't had time to get myself together.  By this time his Neq asked us when were we planning on changing clothes, and then my brother and his wife walked in and I said "Well why yall so dressed up?", their reply was "we are bringing in the New Year with yall". Well evidently they were already aware of what was going to take place. So time was flying and I then decided that I wasn't going to change, I was just as bare as can be. No lashes, no makeup and didn't change clothes. If I would have known I would have gotten myself together..lol.  So outside we all were eating crabs and oysters and laughing and talking with family and friends.  So the music stopped and I asked what song do yall want to hear next, and Tron said "put that Lenny Williams on", I did, then went back over to the table eating crabs. Well as I was eating his hunting buddy Treace surprised me with a bouquet of flowers! He thanked me for feeding him sometimes when I fed Tron before he leaves for hunting, as he hands me the flowers I stretched my eyes as if to say that was weird of him to hand me flowers. I then turned from him, and to my surprise I see my soon to be husband on one knee...asking if he could change my last name from C to D. I was so shocked and surprised that I buried my face in his chest and asked "why you asked me in front of all these people" he just laughed. Then out of nowhere the sisters yelled "Tia what's the answer"? I looked over at my tall, black, handsome man and said "YES!!".. he then raised the roof and gave me another hug and kiss on the forehead.  Congratulations came from everyone that night. I wouldn't have wanted the night to been have played out any different than how it did!!! Now the #HuntisDover
