We were in the same class and met through youth group at a mutual friend's family's house where we often gathered. MANY days and evenings were spent playing in the mud, swimming in the pond, and generally hanging out with our friends. That is, if Tim wasn't fishing with Tina's brother. These years culminated with an epic ski trip to Colorado. No one ever told Tina that Tim had a crush on her back then. If only...how our stories would be so different. Fast forward 20+ years and our paths crossed again in September through the same mutual friend's family. That led to texting and talking for several months. We finally went on a date, and three days later Tim told Tina he was going to marry her. We both knew right away. After four months, Tim proposed at the property where their friends used to live over 20 years ago, where their journey first began back in high school and most of their memories are shared. At least now we know we'll have a happy ending!
