Valentine's Day 2019, about a month after we first met and before I knew he was the one. He says he knew.

Memphis in May 2019, our last outing before leaving Memphis behind and moving into a new chapter!

Fourth of July 2019

Shannon driving the moving truck out of Memphis and into our new life together.

Making friends! Watching hockey with our new neighbors in Huntsville. Their dog had to be next to Shannon wherever he sat!

I managed to find a guy who asks if we can spend our Sunday putting a puzzle together and listening to vinyl records. Literally the man of my dreams.

We enjoy watching education television... especially about food... especially if that food is tacos.

We eat a lot of tacos...

We watched the Nats win the World Series... and he watched me simultaneously ugly cry and do a very strange celebratory dance around the living room.

And he does. Every day.

The first photo we ever took together

Impromptu car show at Providence Park around the corner from where we live. Walking hand in hand and learning more about each other every day.

Capturing the crazy!

Old school Shannon. Same serious face just a little more hair. ;-p

The proposal

Shannon's job takes him all over the region and while I was looking for a new full-time opportunity for myself I was able to go to work with him and explore some fun new places!

Captain of the All-Star cheer squad. Guess the head cheerleader ended up with the football player after all.
