"It all started with an ice cold beer" in September of 2016 at a small bar in downtown Milwaukee. Although it sounds much better on the radio, for us, that's exactly how this started. With mutual friends, a relationship was started, and an adventure had begun, though neither of us knew it at the time. It started out simple, with common interest like the gym, the music we listened to, and being Chicago fans. After a while, we realized how much more lined up: Our faith, goals, and values. We started going to church on Sundays together and began to challenge each other in different aspects of our lives. We made goals, goals that included each other in the future. Our first "I love you" came when I asked him if he wanted to get sushi for dinner. He responded with, "oh my gosh I love you." I wasn't entirely sure if he was joking or not, but I knew two things" I wanted sushi, and I certainly do love this man! Soon after that, he took me to Chicago where we ring shopped and took pictures at The Bean, where I made jokes like "Justin! I've never bean here before". He loves my not so funny jokes, and I love his sensitive side. Justin's thoughtful side showed in our engagement with his planning. From the letters he wrote me to the rose petals he sprinkled on the ground, he managed to ask, "Will you marry me?" Of course I said yes! How lucky are we to find the only other Chicago fan in a state full of packer fans?!
