We were introduced to each other by a friend while working at Stew Leonard's. I, Michelle, was in the break room with a friend who told me that many of the new hires were from our high school, Gorton. When she finally introduced us, I did not recognize him. But we got to know each other through all our fun times at this job and we then became inseparable. We were just 16 and 17 when we met, I was his cashier and he was my bagger LOL. Matt secured the bag with Michelle on November 5th, 2013.

After being together for 6 years, living together for 1 year, and having our precious baby boy Mason, we knew that our next step in the relationship had to be about celebrating our love. Matthew always referred to Michelle as his wife but we wanted to make things official. Matthew proposed to Michelle on her first Mother's day, May 10th, 2020. We are ready to move forward as a family in this relationship and continue to grow together for eternity.
