Jared and I crossed paths in our algebra class, an unexpected encounter that would shape a lasting friendship. In those early days, he reached out to me with unyielding persistence, texting across every social media platform, his determination to befriend me both endearing and creepy at times. Time passed, and I watched the rebel transform into someone remarkably kind. Our connection grew beyond the confines of a classroom, reminding me that sometimes, the most unexpected friendships are the ones that change us the most.

Jared's proposal at the base of Table Rock Mountain was a dream come true, bathed in the soft glow of candles, flowers, and a charming arch that framed our moment perfectly. We were fortunate to savor the magic of the day with a talented photographer capturing each intimate moment, though the relentless swarms of burrs underfoot added an unexpected adventure to our unforgettable mountain proposal.
