Alex and Caroline met way back in high school. One of the earliest conversations they had was on the bus ride home from their summer jobs as being teaching assistants at the middle school enrichment program. Alex gave Caroline a compliment on her cool blue nail polish. They were also on the bowling team together and had a few more conversations on the bus ride home from there. Caroline would drive Alex and their friend, Jeremiah, home from bowling too. Then the fateful day arrived when Caroline's brother's computer was having real trouble. Who would she turn to? Her brother was at college and couldn't check it out. Oh right! There's this guy who knows about computers.. he happens to live around the corner.. let me ask him! The computer died (Rest in Peace) but from there on out, Caroline and Alex had each other's phone numbers. When they tied up their parents' landlines for too long, they would take long walks around the neighborhood together. They officially became a couple on April 30, 2004. Right before Caroline left for college in August of 2004, they were both pretty sad because her going away would likely mean they'd have to break up. "Why don't we just try it?" said Alex. And try they did. Through several years of long distance, several years of school, and living in different states, Caroline and Alex always kept it going and finally reunited in their home town for good in 2013. On October 21, 2017, Alex had another question for Caroline: "Do you want to go to the cat cafe?" "Uh, YES!" And on October 22, after spending a hour playing with adorable cats, Alex had an even more important question for Caroline. "Do you want to pet kitties with me forever?" "Uh, YES!!" There was really no question in their minds that they were meant to be. Caroline and Alex are so excited for continuing to grow together and to build their future lives together. They cannot wait to celebrate with all of their friends and family, and to share their joy with all of you!
