Allan and I met at Florida College Dry Creek Camp when we were in elementary school. We were good friends and always enjoyed talking and catching up every year. He would take me on friend dates to the snack shack and we would enjoy sitting on the rockers at camp talking about life and God. We had a special friendship and one that had a special place in my heart. Our lives went separate ways after we both attended Florida College, but the Lord soon had other plans and he came back into my life when I moved to Deer Park for a teaching job in 2019. The next year was spent reconnecting as friends and growing with our young peoples group at the Southside church of Christ. I soon saw the man Allan had become and quickly fell in love with his heart and character. I am very proud to stand by his side and look forward to our forever. God truly caused it all to fall into place and for that I am thankful. He proposed to me August 6th, 2021 at my parents home, the same place where our dating relationship began. God's hand has been in it all and we give Him all the glory for His plan and His way.
