The Countdown Until Our Forever Is On!!

Our story begins in 2018, with both of us swiping on the same app at just the right time. A connection happened almost instantly, both us quirky and the love for fishing caught our eye. However, what sealed the deal was this day, our first date. John had introduced himself by a long hand shake that turned into him just holding my hand for a while, I felt like a princess. Then comes the hiccup of dinner, where I had shown up with garlic bread thinking we were going to make spaghetti and John thought we planned on going out for Mexican. After a few giggles that really broke the ice, we decided to get a pizza and we watched movies for the rest of the night. The whole date was filled with laughter!

The phrase "I never saw it coming" is the only way to start our story...The day started like any other from the last few weeks, John was at work and I'm packing up the house for our move to Tennessee. The week had already become special when we found out we were having a boy, and I had gotten a job offer to work in Tennessee earlier than expected. Secretly, within the excitement, John and my mom had made a plan for him to present my grandmother's ring before I left! I was so shocked when he was kneeling with her ring that I didn't even hear the question, but I said yes as soon as I could speak.
