Jon and I met once in high school and while I thought he was handsome, he didn't quite make the first best impression. Years later, we reunited with similar friends in college. He made a much better impression this time and before I knew it, I was texting my friends about him. Little did I know that one of my friends is now his cousin-in-law (thank God for small towns). Our wedding date will be just shy of 5 years since our first date. In that time, we have moved away from home, experienced the majority of our 20s (yikes), raised two of the best dogs, and fallen more in love with each other each day.
