We're getting married!

Who would have ever thought that when the time finally came to meet and be with the love of your life, you would be starting that life 1,877 miles away from each other. Well that was it. Thats Our Story... Shea and I have known each other for quite a long time. When I first met Shea, I was 14 years old and he was walking into my house... (to hang out with my brother). I know, disappointing. Back then, Shea was (and will always be) as most people would say, captivating, handsome, a real good-looking; hard to miss, guy. I remember being a young girl and on various different nights, myself and all my girl-friends would come up with different ways to get down into the basement where the older boys would hang out. We would make plans on how to follow my brother and his friends (Shea) out at night just to see what they were doing and get closer to him. As a young girl, It was all exciting and fun. But that was it, it was all just fun. And then you grow up. I moved away to college and rarely visited back home. I made new friends and forgot the old. However, my brother did not. My brother has been the kind of guy that has stuck with the same friend group since he was a boy and that's what I admire the most about him. Those kind of friendships are rare and hard to come by. Friends that old stay and they last. Shea Yeager being one of those friendships. When my college years were over and I moved back home, my brother and I decided to continue to live together. With that decision came the natural repercussion of my brother's life long friends being at our house TWENTY-FOUR-SEVEN. In the grand scheme of things this was fine for me because these weren't some random guys, these were the guys that I have now known most of my life too. But now in a different way. See when you are younger hanging out with your older brother and his friends was in his mind, a catastrophe, mass destruction, the literal end of the world. But when you grow-up you start to realize that your siblings are the closest relationships you are ever going to have. You start to see your siblings more as friends. Life long best-friends and so there I was finally adopted into the group as one of the friends. Now, as you have probably already assumed, this is how Shea and I became Shea and Sadie. But unfortunately it was a little too late. Shea was moving across the country, 1,877 miles away. But here's the part where I tell you what I love most about Timothy Shea Yeager. For most people this would of been a deal breaker. Understandably speaking, (only 40% of long distance relationships last) but it wasn't for Shea. It would have been easy to call it quits; I mean we really had only been dating for a short period of time. But here's the thing about love, it isn't easy and it isn't just a feeling. Love is a choice and we had made ours, and because of that choice 3 years ago, Shea and I get the privilege to choose each-other for the rest of our lives.
