How we met

I had just gotten out of a very abusive relationship and was just not myself. Austin had messaged me on Facebook asking if I wanted to hangout. We became friends and then gradually started talking. A couple months after talking he asked me to become his girlfriend. I was very nervous to say yes but he made it clear that he would treat me the way a woman should be treated, so I said yes. We had been together about 4 years when we found out we were expecting! Not going to lie I thought he was going to leave because we weren’t ready to have a baby. June of 2023 we welcomed our little boy into the world! Our son has brought us closer together and shown that no matter what milestones and hardships we go through we have each other! Thankful that we walked into each other’s lives 6 1/2 years ago!

Our Proposal

I have always wanted to get married. After 6 years of saying how one day I want to be a complete family, we were sitting out on his mom’s patio just talking and he just randomly asked the question! Ever since that day I still get butterflies from the day he asked! And then we had our engagement photos and it was a dream come true.
