We met eight years ago through a mutual friend in Sheridan, Wyoming. Our friend acted as the middleman in sharing our contact information. In what felt like months since first exchanging numbers and not hearing a peep from Spencer, I decided to send the initial text! Pretty bold of me... Anyway, we finally got to meet in person a few weeks later. Our first date was at Bliss, a frozen yogurt shop in Sheridan. He says it was love at first sight, but I was too jammed up to speak, let alone form a single thought! No matter how awkward our 16 and 17 year old selves were, we were pretty much inseparable after that whether we were in the same state or not. A good chunk of our dating history has been long distance. I think we can both agree, absence does make the heart grow fonder. We fought hard to make our relationship last through the distance and the years. It has been a long time coming and we are so overjoyed to take on this next chapter together. Here's to the rest of our lives together!
