We met on the band field where we shared the same yard line for pregame. We didn't talk very much, but he was the only reason I ever remembered where to start. He was incredibly hard to miss holding his 5th bass drum. A friendship blossomed through practices, football games, and mutual friends. We dated other people, and I never imagined a love like this would grow between us (but I am so glad I was wrong). It wasn't "love at first sight," or anything like you see in the movies. It was years of friendship, growing together, falling together, and moving forward together. The love and life we have built is an incredible blessing, and I wouldn't change a thing. We love nights in, or impromptu trips to Braves games (whether in Atlanta, or several hours away). We love going to concerts and making memories together. He is and always will be my best friend and the love of my life, and I cannot express the excitement I feel to be his wife. Can it be June already?
