we said yes! Join us in our countdown until we say "I do"

Rewind back to January 2017, the night after my 20th birthday. One of my good friends at the time had a date lined up with a guy she had been seeing and wanted to know if I would tag along with them and a 2nd guy friend for a blind double date. We drove over to Bradley's house and met up in the garage ready to go eat at a hibachi place close by. We had both been hurt before and neither were looking necessarily for the other but fate must've had a hand in it because here we are today.. we struck up an endless amount of conversations that night and every night that week, even to the point of seeing each other every single night despite living an hour apart or staying on the phone till the both of us fell asleep. Side note, even though we talked in the beginning about waiting to say "i love you" to make sure we both knew 100% and didn't hurt one another like we had been in the past, Bradley just couldn't contain himself and after about a week we were "i love you-ing" every hour because we "just knew". Funny how a 6th sense works! Also -funny story from that first night we met. In one of our many conversations the first night, Bradley mentioned something about his collection of guns and related hobbies. I let him know that I had never even shot a gun before and he looked at me and said "You've never shot a gun...?? do you want to?" And there we went, after dinner, off road on family land to shoot my first gun. That's the moment in time that struck me, this is going to be a crazy fun ride I never want to get off of. We decided to stay on that ride and continue falling in love for the past 7 years, I pray we fall in love a little more every day for the rest of our forever.
