In 2015 we were attending a little country church called Palmer Community. Not very many attended, however on one Sunday night, this teenage boy walked in for service. I was 9 and he was 16, so of course I didn’t pay much attention to him. Fast forward to 2023, I was 19 and he was 25. I saw a post that he had made on Facebook that prompted me to send him a private message inviting him to church, but didn’t know that he would come. That next Wednesday night, he showed up at Hope Church in Caledonia where we attend. On November 11th, 2023 we had our first date and from there, it’s all history ❤️

After having been together for 7 months, we were officially going on our first vacation together with my family! After hoping for many weeks, I got the hint that my poor little box was stuck in Missouri. Finally, on our last day at the beach in Alabama, while taking family pictures, my handsome man decided he was going to get down on one knee and propose. That will always be remembered as one of the best moments of my entire life ❤️
