How we met

Way back in 2012, we both were committed to playing our sports at Winthrop University, and several of our mutual friends suggested we meet (shout out to Carlisle, Ellen, and Kristi). Naturally, this "meet up" began on Facebook. After two weeks of digital messaging, we met in person with the hopes of finding a carpool buddy. At the last minute, Steven changed our plans of dinner and a movie to his brother's birthday pool-party "with his brothers friends". Little did I know that Taylor had like 2 friends, so I met Steven's entire family on night one. We haven't looked back since. The next week, we went on our first "real" date. A month later came the "I love you"s. And eight years later, here we are!

The proposal

So obviously eight years...is like... a long time. So there have been a few proposals and credit goes to whoever you happen to ask. Buttttt, technically Steven gets credit for the "first" one. Granted it wasn't a real one. He came back from a beach trip with his high school buddies and on our first official date he had a quarter-machine toy ring in one of those plastic containers that are super hard to open. So it was mostly (I think) a joke that Trout suggested..? Now fast forward through seven years of basically being a married couple to last summer. Steven came in hot with a real proposal after recreating that first date. I, being me, was going through some sh*t, and was like nah this is too much right now, let's keep waiting a while. But I can change my mind. So in January, I was wandering through Montana Ave. shops with my mom in LA, when we wandered into an establishment selling crystals and salt lamps and what-not. I happened upon these jade rings, and immediately needed one for Steven (and later went back for one for myself). When we got home, I handed him the ring and said "here you go! now it's forever." Soooo really I should get credit I think. Anyways, you get it, Steven and I have known we would be together forever since day one.

For all the days along the way
