Ever since I was a little girl, I dreamed of my Prince Charming, but never in a million years did I ever think I would find him! I met my love when I was eleven and he was fourteen, I know it sounds weird now but back then we were just kids and didn't even think about the future or what it would hold. Our families became good friends and we ended up hanging out often. I remember playing legos together and building some cool things. Of course as we grew up we each went our separate ways and found other friends, with Juan being about 4 years older than me we hung around totally different friend groups. For the next few years we would talk sparingly but when we did our conversations would end up with us in fits of laughter, many people would pester me and tell me I liked him and that I would end up with him in the future. Of course I brushed it off and forgot about it, he was older than me and would probably find someone his age I thought. After graduating high-school, Juan and I became close friends again, we began hanging out more with our 18 and up youth group, with our just engaged friends Anahi and Jesus, and the rest is history! We started dating July 1st of 2020 and about a couple of months later I knew I loved him. I loved everything about him, his laugh, his smile, his voice in the morning, his ability to make me laugh and smile when I was having a tough day, but most importantly his love for Church, God, and the things of God. I truly believe God had his hand on my life and led me to the man he made for me! Without God, without our church and without our parents, we would not be where we are today. I am so lucky and so blessed God gave me my Prince Charming X10! I am so excited to start the journey of marriage with God and my best friend in the whole entire world, my love. I love you so much Juan Gonzalez. You are my fairytale.
I first met Abigail when I was about 14 years old. We were just kids back then so I never really thought that she would be the girl I would come to love so much and marry. My family would go over to their house and we would always play a game or build something together. We would always laugh together and have so much fun. As time went on, I got older and graduated high school so I never really got to talk to her as much as I did when we were going to school together, but when I did see her at church or at the RidX office it was always fun to talk to her and we would always laugh and joke around a lot. As we got older we would talk here and there, but then we started to hang out a lot and go places with our youth group, and it was then that I realized that I really liked her. We started dating about 5 months after that and the rest is history! I am so blessed and thankful for Abigail, and I couldn't ask for any better. She is such an amazing, beautiful and Godly young lady and I am so happy she is going to be my wife. I really believe God had a plan for us from the beginning and guided us to each other, and I am so excited for what God has in store for us. I love you so much and I am looking forward to spending the rest of our lives together.
