Sean and I first met at an Office-themed birthday party. (It was mine, I was dressed as a Dundie. Sean had never seen the Office…). Few words were exchanged, but Sean thought, “oh, she cute”. That was in 2017. We would see each other periodically. At The Porch, hanging out with friends, church, weddings, etc. I thought he was too cool for me but knew he was the sweetest, most intentional person. Fast forward to May 2019. I had RSVP’d “yes” to a friend's party and Sean decided he would attend to try to see if I was cool. We ended up hanging out the rest of the evening, and a week later he called me to ask me on a date. (Full disclosure, I was too nervous when I saw his name on my phone and didn’t answer…glad I called him back!) Our first date was at Beastro, an annual food and wine festival at the Fort Worth Zoo. We ate all sorts of good, local food, saw some animals (I attempted to impress him with my knowledge of animals), went in the donut line, twice, and found ourselves talking until we were told the event was ending and we had to leave. Sean proposed on June 20th, 2020 at the Modern Art Museum in Fort Worth. I of course said, "YES!" to forever and we spent the evening celebrating with our family and friends.

Our whole story exists to point to an even greater love story of what God has done in all of our lives. We are grateful for His plan and faithfulness from day one and can’t wait to see what He has in store for our marriage. We can't wait to share that same story with you on April 10th, 2021! (quite the cliff hanger, but Sean DID finish all 9 seasons of The Office.) "We love because he first loved us." 1 John 4:19
