It’s always fun to look at each other and laugh when we are asked how we met. Would you believe that this all started at an Alton Legion Haunted House Baseball Fundraiser! Mike was dressed as a werewolf! Who would have ever thought I would fall in love with that guy! Well here we are almost 9 years later... two teachers, a baseball coach, a house and two awesome pups! I wouldn’t change a thing about the last 9 years; we have had ups and downs, countless laughs and cries, triumphs and some defeats and through all of it we created a relationship that is stronger than you can ever imagine. Mike was a guy from Wood River, I lived in Brighton and went to Alton High, completely different schools, social groups and lives, we were just two young kids brought together by this wonderful game of baseball. Mike and I endured four years of college, somewhat of a long distance relationship, countless hours at the baseball field, school work and awards, state championships, long work hours, a first time home buying experience and adopting two pups. Fast forward to Christmas Day when Mike unexpectedly proposed. I mean I figured, It had to be the next big step in our relationship but I can honestly say it was a very big surprise! So of course I said YES! (FINALLY!) Now, here we are finally engaged and finally planning our wedding and a pandemic occurs! Who would have ever thought?? So after lots of changes and planning, we are so excited to finally be getting married on November 7th! I’m marrying my best friend, my biggest supporter, the most honest, funny, and caring guy who is the absolute love of my life! We are so excited to start the rest of our lives (officially) together and we can’t wait to celebrate it with all of you! ❤️ Love, Mike and Lindsey
