Love is in the air!

October 10, 2018 would be the day that our lives changed forever. We had been anticipating a category 3 hurricane for days. We hunkered down in our house and prepared for a wild ride without giving it much thought. "People go through cat 3 hurricanes all the time and they aren't that bad." We watched in devastation as the storm went from a cat 3 to a cat 5. We knew that we were at the point where evacuating further was just not an option. Cody and I were prepared to face this monster head on together, hand in hand. The storm came and went, bringing total devastation to our little city and the surrounding area, but it was the next few days that tested our relationship the most. We pushed our relationship to the limit and came out stronger than before. About 3 days after Michael reared it's ugly head we were laying in bed, gross and stinky as we hadn't showered in several days (and we had been running around in the hot sun. GROSS!), and we were talking about life when he pops the question. We had survived the worst and we're ready to make the best of it. We cannot be happier!
