It seems as if we had always known of each other. We lived in neighboring towns, and were always around each other at track meets, sports games, and so much more. One day, in 2018, I (Makenzie) was hanging out with our mutual friend (shoutout Camden). We went to the softball fields in Grandview, and saw Dametrious. That's the first time we ever talked. Dametrious came up to me and and made his first, very subtle, move. After talking and on and off for about a few weeks, communication fell off due to life changes. Fast forward to a year later and I saw a picture of Dametrious on Instagram. I remember thinking he looked so cute, and reached out to him that night. That was April 17th, 2019. We've been talking every day since then! Shortly after, we started dating on June 27th, 2019. Throughout these 5 years together, we've been through so many amazing things, along with many challenges. Not only have we grown as individuals but we have grown immensely closer in our relationship together. God knew what he was doing when he matched us together. These are truly the days that we have prayed for, and now we are SO excited to take on the journey or MARRIAGE together!!!!!
