Cody: I love how motivated she is to follow her dreams. A perfect example is her business. Most people wouldn’t even attempt to start their own business the way she has. She's grown so much in that aspect in the past few years. I’m very proud of that. I love how she balances out my logical mind. It’s all too easy for me to worry about the logistics of things instead of just enjoying life. Shelby's always there to help me find a balance between the two I love her passion for Christ. She does an amazing job of reminding me to keep Him at the center of our relationship. She's helped teach me how to have a healthy relationship with Him. Shelby: I love Cody's strength. He never wavers in his love for me and he is always so sure of himself, us and that God will take care of us. He is always the first to remind me that things are going to work out and to "Let go & Let God". I am the emotional one, and this strength about him just balances me out so well! He is the most encouraging man and makes me feel so safe! I love his love for animals and anything tiny and cute. This might sound silly, but his inner 3 year old comes out at the sight of a cute puppy. It's honestly the greatest thing ever and always a way to make him smile and melt into a mushy puddle!! LOL I love his hard working, competitive and honest personality. He never settles for less than his best, and it is so admirable. In school, in personal projects, at his internships.. He is diligent in his work! I am so proud of my brilliant soon-to-be engineer husband!

Cody: I’m excited to spend the day with our friends and family while celebrating us. It’s going to be a great day in an amazing place with some pretty awesome people! Alternative, non-mushy answer : margs and golf Shelby: I am most excited for the minute we are an actual married couple! It will be 7 years of being together soon. And I am just so unbelievably ready to marry Cody! Also, cheeseburgers and all the food.

Cody: Man. You just had to ask about memories. Remembering something from yesterday is hard enough. Now you’re asking me to remember a moment from our last 6 1/2 years lol. I’m not a story teller so this is really throwing me under the bus. I’m going to have to say getting to see where you grew up in North Carolina for the first time. It really helped me understand why your childhood feels like a dream to you. It really is an amazing place Shelby: There are so many. Every day with him is awesome, so it's hard to pick a favorite :) BUT gun to my head, I'd have to say the moment I said yes to being his wife! We were both shaking, so nervous and excited. He told me how much he loved me and that he wanted me to be his BFF forever! Best day ever!
