Happily Ever After

Matt and I met on a dating app as I had moved home from Liberty and was about to start graduate school. I was 23 and he was 22. He graduated from Campbell University with a bachelors in Business Management, and as a retired Division 1 Wrestler. We went on our first date June 8, 2019 at Chapman's Food and Spirits in downtown Southern Pines. I then learned what a cochlear implant was. Matt and I spent our first few hours together learning about each other, and on the way home from our first date we talked about the Lord's goodness and grace in our lives. The night of our very first date Matt bravely introduced himself to my parents, I had decided he was just charming enough to come into my family's sacred home. On August 9, 2019 Matt spent the weekend at the beach with my family and he asked my dad if it would be okay to court me. With seashells in the sand, he asked me to make things official and my heart smiled. It was that day that I knew something special was meant for Matt and me. I knew the Lord had plans for me, the timing was perfect and I felt as if Matt was given to me to nurture and cherish forever. On 8/1/2021 Matt proposed to me at Johnson's Point Marina in Seven Lakes, NC - a special place in my heart. Matt's Landscaping Business, Rise Again Landscaping is thriving, and overall the Lord has blessed it abundantly. As of today, we have been dating for 3 years plus, now working on our fourth year of life together. We cant wait until you all join us as we wed on 9/4/2022 after I graduate from Methodist University with a Doctorate in Occupational Therapy.
