Before they called it social media, we met on MySpace in 2005. We initially only sent each other IMs and then exchanged phone numbers a short time later. We really enjoyed speaking to each other and had an instant connection because we both LOVE playing video games. I think he found it hard to believe that a girl could be a gamer and played Metal Gear Solid, a popular Playstation video game out at the time. We dated off and on throughout the years but officially got back together in 2014. We both strongly believe that God led us back to one another.
The proposal was on December 16, 2015, which was the 10 year anniversary of our very first date. James had just gotten home from a workout and when I opened the door to let him in, he immediately got on one knee and proposed. I think he was kind of nervous because he grabbed the wrong hand and I had to correct him, but of course the answer was yes! We're excited to share this next chapter in our lives with you. See you in Fort Worth!
