Joe and Melody rode on the same bus in elementary school, and while Melody remembers being enemies with Joe until seventh grade, he claims to have loved her from the beginning. Either way, the two became close friends and by the summer before high school, they were officially going steady. They have been ever since.
As long as they've been dating, Melody has joked about the race to a proposal and who would "win" and propose first (totally not competitive at all..). So when the two planned a trip to their favorite place, South Dakota, on their anniversary, one can only guess what happened next!
June 9th is a magical day. It's the day Joe and Melody started dating and shared their first kiss and the day that they got engaged. But what you might not know, is that this was also the day that Melody's parents met in 1989, and they've been madly in love ever since. June 9th is also Barb and Lester Spies' anniversary, they are like Melody's second family. And another couple that radiates love. We cannot wait to take our next big step on this special date!
