It’s Finally Happening

August 9 of 2015. My friend Clarissa and I had planned to go floating. Little did I know I would meet my soulmate. Come to find out she had a brother!! As soon as I locked eyes on him I was hooked! He was headed back out to Wichita for work until he found out we were going floating. He said “oh I better go with you girls to make sure you guys know what you are doing” 🤦🏼‍♀️ We got to the river and Clarissa and I are in the canoe. Ryan is in a tube tied to the canoe, in white tube socks, black tennis shoes, and a white t-shirt. I thought who floats with a shirt on?? After some conversation, I didn’t think I’d ever see or talk to him again. He was tied up in a 3 year relationship and I had relationship problems of my own with having a 7 month old. We got off the river and went to get my car and decided to go to sonic to grab dinner before we left town. Before I left he said “ I better get your number In case you have any problems getting home or need to stop” Well duh, I gave it to him! The next couple days we talked nonstop. 4 days later I find myself in Wichita. He took off work and took August and I to the zoo and out to a very nice restirant. That was the last first date. He dove in head first and took us in. It truly was love at first sight. 3 years later in New Mexico on one of my trips down, he told me we’d be getting family pictures at White Sands and he had already bought our outfits. I was like wow, okay cool! He was acting a little weird but I didnt overthink. We got to White Sands and there were guys from his work all standing around. Little did I know they had gotten there 3 hours before to find the perfect place to take pictures and for Ryan to propose. The minuite he got down on that knee and expressed his love for us I about passed out from so much excitement I had no idea what to think or do! Now I get to marry the man I believe god placed in our lives. We are so excited to start our future together. We cant wait for you to join us!!
