How we got here

May 18, 2018

Our love story begin where all great love stories do... Tinder. We knew of each other through mutual friends but we had never talked to one another or met. We believe we met at the exact right & perfect timing in both of our lives. We met for the first time at a party in my soon-to-be apartment at the time. By the end of the night we were inseparable in front of the "wall that started it all" from that moment on we knew this was it. Sounds cheesy I know but when you know you know. Eli spent the entire summer of 2018 with me pretty much driving an hour every week or so to see me. He asked me to be his girlfriend on May 18, 2018. After that I moved to Decatur while he finished out his junior year at Millikin. At this point we had 2 sweet kittens who some of you may know.. Chico & Luna. On May 11, 2019 Eli asked me to marry him & obviously I said YES! After that apartment we got a new one together this time as well as a sweet german shepherd pup Theo & another kitten, Simon. & that brings us to now planning and finalizing the big day when we say "I Do" and let me tell you... we cannot wait!
