Several years ago James and I met online. I was a Junior in high school and James was in his first year of college. We hung out just a few times together as friends but it just wasn’t our time. Over the next couple years we texted regularly, went out together on a couple Valentines Day dates, we never lost interest in each other. Finally in 2015 James texted me and said “I wanna go to dinner with a pretty lady” we attempted to go to dinner but instead he had to save me from the middle of the road after I was involved in a car accident. That was our first date in a couple years. Later that week he asked me to be his date to his sisters wedding. Fast forward to 2017. For christmas James had got me a groupon for a petting zoo- anyone who knows me know thats right up my alley. I love animals! We decided to go on Memorial Day weekend. It was by far the hottest day of the year, by the end I was ready to go home! James insisted I walk up this giant hill (swear just to get closer to the sun) so he could take my picture. After fighting him for several minutes I finally did it. James standing at the bottom says “do something cute” as my hands went into the air with the biggest smile on my face, James went down on one knee. We planned our wedding to be in June of 2019 but the universe had other plans for us. In October of 2018 we found out I was pregnant. We were due with our baby girl in July of 2019. We postponed our wedding so we could prepare for our daughter. Here we are, so very close to our wedding day, with our beautiful one year old daughter, Parker. Our future is bright, we’re building our family, and we’re finally tying the knot!
