It’s FINALLY happening!!

Everybody has their story of how they met. Ours was a little different, we met online. It didn't take long for both of us to realize that we were both meant for each other. Ryan told me I was a belated birthday gift that he wished would've came a little sooner. thr first time we met he gave me the biggest hug EVER. I was a little shy at first but then I opened up more and more with him.. Honestly, I think what helped us the most is we never just talked on the phone we always facetimed even the first phone call was a facetime video... becsuse you all know about the show "catfish" right haha I wasn't about to be catfished so thankfully he had an iPhone too haha..We went on a double date with his brother and his girlfriend he was with at the time and thats how Ours dates went for awhile. Then finally one of our dates was at pizza hut for valentines and he gave me a card and said remember when I told you I would make you mine forever and behind the card was a promise ring. I was the happiest person in the world because I never thought I would find another man that would love me like he does. It took us about 2 weeks of just getting to know each other, hanging out with each other and friends.

Ryan officially asked me to be his girlfriend when we were walking back from going out with friends a little after midnight. Of course I said yes because I knew I couldn't be with anybody else who made me this happy. I slowly introduced the boys to him over facetime, he knew I had 2 small boys and I knew he had a daughter and a son also. We then let everybody meet each other because of how serious we were getting. The kids got along very well surprisingly but they were still so little to really understand but they took to Ryan very well and Katie and joey were so excited to have me around. &&&& then I got sick and put in the hospital right before Thanksgiving with pneumonia and little did I know that I was also pregnant at the time with mine and his 3rd child. It was a shock to both of us but God doesn't give what you can't handle and he knew that Schyler was meant to be what combined our family together to become one BIG happy blended family of being His, Mine & Ours. I wouldn't change the way anything happened for nothing!

it was about a year after we had gotten together he originally proposed to me at Sir Pizza in town with all my family sitting at the table (not sure what it was with pizza places haha) but then he ended up getting down on one knee at Southern Lights when we were getting our family photo done with Santa for Schylers 1st Christmas. Of course, I said yes or we wouldn't be here today. the past 4 years have been nothing but the best and I hope to many more fun fulfilled years with our family. Thank you for taking the time to learn about me and Ryan and how we have come to where we are in our lives. I hope to see each one of you at at the wedding and hope you all enjoy your time with us. Can't wait to celebrate with you all!!
