Joshua and I met at THE best campus in the entire world- the infamous Michigan State University. I was 18 years old and he was 20 (hard to believe we were that young!). 6 months later he brought our fur baby, bubba into the family and we knew from there neither of us were going anywhere, since Bubba was the cutest puppy! We dated through college and graduated together in May of 2017. From there we moved from our beloved East Lansing apartments into our own 800 sqft apartment in Novi. One year later, in May of 2018 we upgraded and bought our first home together in Saint Clair Shores. From there we are building our live together with Bubba and I wouldn’t want to have it any other way! A few months later, we went up north to spend the 4th of july and his birthday with family. On the holiday itself, I was standing on the deck, of course trying to play with the neighbors dog, when Joshua came walking up. No idea what he was about to do...I initially thought he was breaking up with me since he was acting weird the entire day. Dont remember what he said (sorry Josh)- all I remember is that he got down on one knee and popped the question!! We were both overcome with emotion and my family watched the whole thing go down. My dad referred to it as live TV entertainment from the Bachelor. It was completely a surprise and an easy question for me to answer! Josh has always called me HP for as long as we’ve been together and we couldn’t be more ecstatic then to finally make it official and share this share special moment with everyone! #happilyeverpenner ❤️💍
