We're getting married!

Our story first starts when I was about twelve and Marcus was twenty three. It wasn’t actually our story back then, but that’s when I first met Markie after he moved to Orlando from Indiana to live with my future brother-in-law and go to school. Fast forward fifteen years, Marcus is living in Encinitas and I’m in Denver, we both happened to be in the same city for one night and ended up dancing and laughing together all night. We never went another day without talking and we both knew pretty quickly that this was "it"!

As most of you know, Marcus and I are big fans of tiny living. Last summer we renovated a fifth wheel RV that we currently live in and the whole time we were talking about our next project, the tiny house. We had our sights set on building a tiny house ourselves, but a few months ago found an amazing tiny house shell that looked promising. The shell would allow us to still be able to design the interior exactly how we wanted, so we pulled the trigger and the next day we drove up to San Luis Obispo, CA to check it out! We saw it one time and let the seller know we were in. We put down a deposit and headed back to San Diego to start planning how to get the tiny house back home. Three weeks later we were back on the road headed to San Luis Obispo to get our house. We met the seller at the tiny house that morning to finalize the deal. Before we started signing papers Marcus asked me to come inside the tiny house one more time to make sure we wanted it. We both climbed inside, Marcus looked around and asked “Are you sure you want to do this?” I had no idea where this conversation was about to go, but I replied “What?! Of course I’m sure!”. The next thing I knew he was on his knee and asking me to marry him inside our house. It was perfect.
