its wedding time

We met during our overlapping trips to Germany for the Army. It started as friendship with homemade cheesecakes and bonding over workplace drama, and became a years' worth of long-distance phone calls, virtual date nights, and many airplane flights in between.

On our first trip together, we went to Dallas to meet the family for the first time. We made plans to go to a baseball game with some of Blake's family. On our way to the arena, we were both equally amped up and trying to beat traffic to get good parking. As I hand-fed him tacos in the middle of downtown traffic, bonding over a rant, we both knew it was a forever thing.
