We met one day talking over Snap Chat when we were 13 and 15. It first all started with talking about the rain. When the fair had rolled around we hung out there. We went to the Old Dominion concert together and had gone to the dance. That was only the beginning. We went to school right across the street from each other. We kept talking and we went to homecoming multiple times together.

We had gone mudding, after a big rain. When we had gotten stuck on our way out he had gone behind the pickup to get everything in place. when we called my name, I came out of the pickup and went to see what he wanted. When he had told me to push the pickup, I was like okay why would he ask me to do that, it wasn't stuck that bad. He had gotten in the drivers seat and them spun the wheels so that I would be covered in mud. He had come to the back of the pickup to see if anything had come undone, I turned around and tried to see myself in the mirror and see how much mud was actually on my clothes. When I had come back he was looking at something in the mud. When he had finally dug it up it was a ring box in a plastic bag covered with mud and he was down on one knee. He asked me if I would want to become a Veik and I said of Course!!!

When we had gotten to the trees where we would be taking the first look pictures, the wind started to blow and it had caught my veil just right and it took lift off into the air. I walked up behind him and put my arms around his waist and he slowly turned around to reveal his "Soon-To-Be-Mrs." That was when we both started to tear up. Then the photographer said that we needed to get in a picture position. The sun had become a bit brighter, that was good. The wind went down a little. That was even better.
