How We Met

June 2015

Stephen and Rachel met on Match.com. Rachel had just left a prestigious graduate program to become a Spanish teacher, and Stephen had just finished his first year of teaching high school physics and chemistry. They explored Magnolia in Fort Worth and had so many adventures together on their first date! Rachel's Version: Stephen has been with me through my carpal tunnel surgery, the start (and end) of my teaching career, the death of my father, and so many other events. He has never been intimidated by my ambition, and is the most supportive partner I could ever ask for. He's amazing with both of our nephews and is the most patient person I've ever met. He's also a stellar teacher and a major video game fanatic (haha). Stephen's Version: If I were to tell you about the most ambitious, educated, kind, and outgoing people I know, I would only be talking about one person: Rachel. I had no idea when I messaged Rachel for the first time on Match, that I was messaging my future wife. Her message to everyone was "Looking for a funny, sexy Latino." My first message to her went something like this: "I'm not sexy or Latino, but I am funny!" The rest is history. Since Rachel has been in my life, every day has become a unique adventure and I would not choose anyone else to be my co-pilot. I'm excited to say that I don't want this adventure to ever end, and I'm excited for the things to come. It's been almost 3 years now and we can't wait to make our relationship official with everyone we love as witnesses.
