Richard (Ryan) and Alexandria (Lexi) met in San Antonio, Texas. Neither of them were born there but instead traveled there to start new adventures. Through connections made they found themselves attending the same social gathering. It wasn’t love at first sight. It wasn’t even like at first sight. Thats right, they didn’t really even like eachother as friends upon meeting. But as it goes, they both had the same friend group and often saw one another during gatherings. Over the course of a year through slow conversation they would grow to become friends. Lexi had a trip to Wisconsin planned with two friends and when one cancelled she was desperate to find another person to fill in. Jokingly, she asked if anyone would be willing to take this trip on short notice and Ryan volunteered. On this trip Ryan would, in his words, “fall in love deeply and quickly” with Lexi. A few weeks after returning Ryan would confess his feelings to Lexi and find out she had felt the same. He would quickly become part of her and Anna’s family. After making the move to Wisconsin and being on many adventures together, Ryan proposed to Lexi while on a hike with their beautiful little family of five they had created.
