We both have been attending Crossroads, Olive's Baptist Church College Ministry, since 2017, but never talked. In November of 2019, we started hanging out with a group of friends. By December, we were texting and became friends. After a Wednesday night at church, we admitted we liked each other and officially started "talking." Sadly, the next day he went home for Christmas break. The month that he was gone for break was filled with texting non stop and late night phone calls. The month was filled with joy, laughter, and anticipation on how life would be when we were back together. On January 4, 2020, Joshua came back to Pensacola and we officially started dating!! We are so thankful for the Lord and His perfect timing that brought us together.

On December 22, 2020, Joshua had planned a little date night! We walked downtown on Palafox Street and looked at all the Christmas lights! We then stopped at Fosko's for coffee and hot chocolate. At the end of our walk we stopped at a park filled with Christmas lights galore. Joshua hugged me and told me how much he loves me. Then he got down on one knee and proposed. I said "yes" to marrying the love of my life! December 22, 2020 was the best day our of lives! The beginning to our forever!
