Some love stories start in the most unexpected places—ours began behind the walls of a prison. We met while working together, and what started as a simple friendship quickly became something special. After months of laughs, long talks, and getting to know each other on a deeper level, we officially began dating in August 2021. Since then, our bond has only grown stronger. We’ve built a beautiful blended family with five amazing children, we’ve created a home full of love, chaos, teamwork, and joy. We’ve faced life’s ups and downs side by side, learning, growing, and supporting each other through it all. We’ve overcome challenges that could have pulled us apart, but instead, they brought us closer. We’ve found comfort in each other’s strength, laughter in everyday moments, and love in the life we’ve built. Now, we’re so excited to take the next step—becoming husband and wife. We can’t wait to celebrate this moment with the people who have supported us and watched our story unfold.
