We met in 7th grade. Brenden had just moved to the school district that I had been in since kindergarten. We started to get to know each other through our best friend Derek. After two years he walked into my english class one morning with hot chocolate and single red rose to ask me to go to homecoming. Exactly a week after asking me to the dance, he asked me to be his girlfriend. A few weeks had past and the dance came. It was the last song of the dance and my feet were pretty tired. I was sitting down when he grabbed my hand and asked me to dance to this last song, which happened to be his favorite song. He held me and sang the lyrics of "I Wont Give Up" by Jason Mraz in my ears. It was in that moment that I knew I had found him, the one I wanted to marry. Five and a half years later and one sweet little boy brings us to where we are. Our story is unpredictable, crazy, hectic, fun, full of love and by far my favorite.
