Let's rewind to St. Peter's Fair in eighth grade – that's where we first met. On February 1, 2014, a classic movie date where Michael nervously asked me to be his girlfriend with a note inside the popcorn that said "I know this is corny, but will you be my girlfriend?" Cue the cheesy "Aww!" College threw us a curveball with a solid five years of long-distance, but we tackled it together with endless FaceTime sessions. Then came Smelly Marie. We were "just looking" at a dog shelter outside of Memphis, and boom, our family grew. Delta's unconditional love and craziness brings endless joy to our lives. Finally, in August 2022, we closed the gap in Jacksonville, FL. No more miles between us – just the excitement of a new chapter. In October 2023, we took our first big trip together to Spain. The vibrant streets and breathtaking sights set the stage for a milestone moment. On October 25, 2023, atop the Setas de Sevilla, Michael got down on one knee and asked me the most important question of our lives. The cityscape painted with the colorful lights witnessed our joy as I said 'yes' against the backdrop of this enchanting Spanish skyline! Our journey, which began with fairground fun, survived the trials of long-distance, welcomed a furry friend, and flourished in the sunshine of Jacksonville, took a monumental leap in the heart of Sevilla. Here's to the memories we've made and the countless more waiting to unfold!
