Our Love Story
Aug. 2020 They started working together at Norcal Ambulance. Asher became Angelina's permanent partner, and they spent long 12-hour shifts together. She gave him a hard time when they first met, but he quickly worked his charm and his hilarious personality to change her mind. They quickly became great friends. Towards the end of the year, Asher moved on to another company, and they parted ways, promising not to become strangers. July 2021 After losing touch, they reconnected while going paddle boarding, each bringing their own friend along, Justin and Megan. Angelina shortly found out she got into nursing school and was moving to SoCal. Asher, Angelina, and Megan decided to hang out as much as possible before she moved. That's when sparks started flying for Asher. Angelina was still in her little world, thinking about who knows what. Aug. 2021 Angelina moved to SoCal but the friendship between the "three musketeers" remained. They FaceTimed everyday. Somewhere along the way, Megan realized she was third-wheeling and let the two lovebirds figure things out on their own. Asher and Angelina would FaceTime EVERY day for hours on end. Angelina finally came to the realization that there were indeed sparks between the two lovebirds. Oct. 2021 Asher went to SoCal to "visit his sister." Although he did visit his beloved sister, he spent a lot of time with Angelina. They went on many adventures during the short visit, such as surfing, beach hoping, and Six Flags. But the start of a great adventure was when Asher shared how he felt about her and how special she is to him. Let's just say there were a lot of butterflies and googly eyes. Feb. 25, 2022 Asher made it official. After a day of snowboarding, it was the perfect start for this adventurous couple. May 26, 2023 They were back in SoCal, where they first shared their feelings for each other. They were on the beautiful Laguna beach when Asher got down on his knee and asked Angelina to marry him. She was so shocked; she didn't believe it at first, but with much excitement, she said "YES"! April 25, 2024 This day holds immense significance as two hearts will unite as one. The anticipation to celebrate these two lovebirds has filled us all with excitement and joy. May their adventurous love continue, and may they live happily ever after. All glory and honor to God! "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him." Romans 15:13
