Jerry and I went to the same high school and we had drama class together. However, I didnt meet him there because he always skipped that class....However, we had some mutual friends so he was always around them and so was I. We became really close through them and hit it off really well! Shortly after, him and his family were moving to Georgia and he was going off to basic training. I didnt know what was going to happen or where that was taking us but three months passed and we picked right back up again! He invited me to his family’s fourth of july party (hints the theme😉) and that’s where he asked me out. We were long distance for about a year and made many trips and memories along the way. It’s been a wild ride but he moved back to Missouri, started school up here and four years later & here we are! The proposal was perfect; It was on our three year anniversary and we went to Long horn steak house, where he didn’t really eat much which was very strange for him. We went for a walk over the Missouri bridge walkway as I was looking out over the water I turned around and to my surprise he was on one knee! Of course I said yes and we have been planning ever since. Eager to be Mr. and Mrs!
