In all honesty, I don't think either of us could tell you when we first met. We have been friends for most of our lives and our best guess is that we met sometime in 2002 at Jones Elementary when we were both in kindergarten. In fact, our parents live less than a mile from each other so we have literally been next door to one another our entire lives. We became good friends in high school and made so many memories together. From fun memories like school dances and homecoming to hard ones like mourning the loss of friends, we were always there for one another and it was one of these moments that led us back together. In 2017, we went to Rooster's Cafe to catch up like old friends and our lives were forever changed. We had both grown and changed but we still had the same connection we had as kids. Not long after we started officially dating and we've been together ever since. If you had told us in 2002 or even 2012 that we would marry each other in 2022 we both would have laughed but here we are four years full of adventures and memories later. It's funny how life works and sometimes the person you needed was right there in front of you all along.
