We're Getting Married!

We first met at the Arkansas State Thespian Festival. A few of my friends were chatting with a few of his friends. We shook hands, flirted a little bit, and I promised he wouldn't remember my name the next day. Oh, how happy I am that I was wrong. We spent the next three months texting all the time trying to convince everyone we knew that there wasn't anything between us and we were just friends, until one day we weren't anymore. He traveled the three-hour distance between our high schools and came to junior prom as my date. We danced to One-Direction, and I dragged my introverted "friend" around to meet everyone I knew. By the time the night ended he has asked me out, and April 20, 2013 would forever become one of our favorite dates.

Mike and I had been talking loosely about engagement for a while. We knew we wanted to be together forever, but school kept getting in the way. One day in fall 2018 I told him that if he took me to Disney World he could propose, and then we planned a trip to Disney for Spring Break. I had a feeling I would get engaged at some point surrounding the trip, but I had no idea how or when he was going to do it. Then, in the middle of our trip, he leads me over to the side of Cinderella's castle, got down on one knee, and asked me to be his forever. I said "yes!" and now we are getting married at the same place we got engaged, Walt Disney World!
