Our story

The first day we met was January 21, 2012. At the time I had no intensions of dating anyone as I was just about to start nursing school. I was enjoying hanging out with my friends at one of the local bars in town when I was introduced to Jason by one of my best friends boyfriends. From then on we have been inseparable. Six years later we have an adorable, smart, loving two year old and we cannot wait to share our next adventure with all of you!

How He Asked

I will never forget the night of March 4, 2017. I had been dreaming of this moment and it was nothing short of perfect! I had suggested that we go out for a date night after my mom had agreed to watch Jaxson for us. Knowing that both of us are not the “planning” type and we both like to “go with the flow” (which can be challenging at times) we headed out just like any other night with the same conversation on where we should go to eat (haha I know some of you are laughing right now). We can never decide, so jason said he would just drive and then pick somewhere that he thought looked good. We walked into the restaurant and gave the hostess our name and they started to lead us to our table. But we didn’t sit down... they lead us out a back door (so now I’m very confused.. it’s freezing outside why are we out here?!) we went down a sidewalk to a gazebo and went inside. The table was set for two with wine already poured. Now I knew he had obviously planned this whole thing but why? He told me he wanted to plan something romantic for us because we don’t usually get out and when we do we usually end up at a bar and grill (who doesn’t love bar food?!) I was so excited to just have a nice dinner and talk. We talked for awhile just about our life, Jaxson, and how incredibly happy and blessed we are. Then he said the sweetest thing to me, got down on one knee and asked me to be his wife. And of course I said YES!!!

For all the days along the way
