Let’s get married!

We met at either Iron City or Rebel’s — it depends on which one of us you ask. The first memory I have with Albert is leaving the bar with his late uncle and cousin to grab supermarket sushi before heading home. Little did I know then that those late-night sushi runs would turn into our favorite date for years to come. Back then, I was working at Urban Feet and Albert was at Penske. We were on opposite shifts, but somehow, we made it work — seeing each other for just a few hours before or after work. His best man and my bridesmaid, whom we give credit for introducing us, always told me in the begginning, “Don’t be mad, he works a lot!”. I commended that, and not much has changed to this day. Not long after, life took us on the challenge of long distance when I went away to ASU. But not a single moment went by where our relationship wavered. It’s true what they say — distance really does make the heart grow fonder. Being apart taught us different levels of communication, trust, and connection in ways we likely wouldn’t have living 2 minutes away from eachother back at home. When nursing school came around, Albert saw every version of me — the good, the bad, and all the messy in between — and he never once doubted us. His patience, love, and steady support carried us through every emotional breakdown and supermarket trip for groceries. Dang, I do miss having that credit card in my wallet. Eventually, we reached our next big milestone: buying our first home together. It was a place we picked, knowing we’d one day fill with a family — but for now, it’s home to our two four-legged kids, Ace and Ruger, who completely have our hearts. Through the years, we share many memories from music festivals, camping in Landers and Glamis, river trips to Havasu, Packers games, family barbecues, birthdays and so many celebrations together. Our biggest day is coming and I don’t think we’ve ever been more ready. So, here we are — nearing the end of 2025, ready to begin the new year as husband and wife. After eight incredible years together, full of laughter, growth, and countless sushi dates, we’re finally becoming The Lindemans. xoxoxo
