All restrictions have been lifted!! We canāt wait to celebrate with all our friends and family!
As most of you know, Joe and I were in a class together at ECC and thats where it all began! He sat right behind me and claims he always tried to get my attention! Haha. One day he accidently slammed the class door on my face as I was coming into class and as he was running out of class before it started to get his Tim Hortons coffee. And of course all I did was die laughing about it and Joe just went on his way to get his coffee š A few classes later I walked into class choking on some pretzels that I was snacking on and his response to that was āyou know you have to chew those right?ā Again, all I did was laugh .. while choking. Haha
We hung out for the first time ever (outside of class) on the Fourth of July. Which is our favorite holiday! Joe has asked me plenty and plenty of times before the Fourth of July to hang out but me being me I was too scared to and kept pushing it off, but I finally gave in and let him meet up with me behind my moms house to watch fireworks where we would when me and my sisters were kids! A short 11 days later I finally talked Joe into making it official because I just couldnāt wait any longer! After a fun night at a country concert Joe asked me to be his girlfriend! (The next morning I woke up and asked him if he really meant it because you all know how country concerts go š»š) But of course he meant it!
We decided to up and move to South Carolina! What a fun and crazy expierence that was!! I moved across the East Coast with my then boyfriend, which made our relationship 100 times more serious!
On this day, I woke up having no idea my best friend in the world was going to ask me to spend the rest of my life with him. I knew it would happen one day.. I mean we were planning our wedding our first week of just texting eachother š It was bound to happen at some point I just didnāt know when! My sister Danielle and our friend Jonathan (also a groomsman) came down to visit us in South Carolina for Danielleās birthday. On the Fourth we woke up, normal day, went to beach, came back to our apartment, drank a little by the pool. But Joe (heās always the life of the party) he wasnāt drinking and even told me to wait to drink until we see the fireworks and we can party later that night. Of course I had no idea why he didnāt want to drink, I mean come on, Danielleās in town lets have fun?! All day he kept saying to me āBabe this is our 4th Fourth of July!ā And I would be like okay yeah cool whats so special about that?! And then we went to the fireworks and weāre standing around and Joe says āKels letās take a pictureā And Iām like oh my god yes letās take a picture .. we all know I love taking pictures.. and BAM!!! Drops down on one knee and asks me to marry him!! My cheeks never hurt so bad from smiling. Happiest day of my life!!!!
