It's pretty crazy when you think about it. We were actually each others first boyfriend/girlfriend in seventh grade. All those years ago and who would've thought that we would be getting married after all this time. From the first kiss to the last.
Michael was told by Ashley that he needed to propose by the end of 2018 since we had been together so long. On New Years Eve, we were over at our friends house (a few doors down from ours) and Michael kept telling Ashley to go get the fireworks we bought at our house so he could fill our friends in on his little secret. Ashley refused because they were Michael's fireworks and Michael kept insisting that she go get them anyways. Finally, we all walked to our front door and Michael got down on one knee and it just so happened to not be 2018 anymore.
