They met while Christi was working, covering a Friday afternoon shift call off. Jonathan stopped in to grab a pizza on his way home. Christi was being bubbly and harassing Jonathan a bit. She rang him up for his items (brisk tea and cigs), and he asked for a paper and pen, leaving her his number. Their first date was 2/9/2019, and the rest is history.

Jonathan and Christi decided very early on that there was something different between them. Something neither one had ever felt, or had even thought existed. They felt like two halves of one whole finally finding each other. Christi joked about proposing to Jonathan since he seemed to be dragging his feet. She mentioned buying him a “man-gagement” ring, to which he responded with “I wear a size Sportster 1100”. After trucm shopping and deciding it would be beneficial to wait, Christi conceeded and told Jonathan maybe him bike shopping would be a good idea. A few days later he went and picked up the ring he’d been looking at for awhile. Theres been ups and downs, some because of the obvious hesitation due to this feeling “too storybook”. After finally realizing this thing called life just doesn’t work without one another, Jonathan finally asked Christi to be his wife, and she said “YES!”
