Jeremiah and Cara met almost 12 years ago!! We knew right away we wanted to have a future. Things weren’t always easy though. We went through merging our families and buying a house, then our next house. We’ve always been so focused on raising our kids and doing daily tasks that we pushed off a marriage. We always “felt” like we were married, so what was the rush, or the bother. Recently, something clicked. When it feels right, you know it’s time. We both wish we did this sooner, but there is a time and a place for everything. There also is a feeling, that it’s time, to unite and make things official. That time is now! We are ready and are thrilled to have our family & friends join us in celebrating!
It was Christmas morning and we opened all our gifts, then Jeremiah told me to recheck my advent calendar for the 25th day. (As if i missed it!) it’s a Friends TV show advent calendar that he bought me which i loved my surprises each day, no way I’d miss Xmas day! But, Jeremiah is such a jokester I fell for his trick and stuck my face looking right into the small pocket and saw a little something. As i was pulling out the ring he was behind me saying “will you marry me.” I was shocked and happy and crying all at once!
