We met through my cousin, Cassidy. Duce saw a picture of me on her computer and the rest is history. Our first date was at a paint and sip spot (his idea) and was a total blast. He painted with the skill and precision of Bob Ross and that’s when I knew that he was the one! Fast forward 6 years and here we are. In June, we decided to move in together and get his house on the market. We were stressed and overwhelmed and he had the idea to take a night off from all the hard work and “reconnect” at his house. He decided to re-create our first date and we did a “paint and sip” at his house. We found an online tutorial and started our masterpieces. A few minutes into the video, he turned his painting around so that I could see his work. It said, “Marry Me” and, of course, I painted “yes.” We now live together with our two awesome kids and are building a house that will be ready in July. Things are STELLAR and we could not be more blessed!
