How We Met

First comes (middle) school, then comes marriage...

We met in eighth grade, if you know us you've heard this story a million times. Never did we think that a long-haired Andy and a bright red-haired Sidney would start hanging out and end up where we are today. It all started when Andy walked into class on his first day at a brand new school, and Sidney caught a glimpse of the quietest, best smelling guy she had ever seen (or smelled). Then came the "LMS for a TBH" post that brought them together officially. Little did they know, "TBH we should talk more" would land them with 10 years together, an engagement, a wedding, and so very many things in between.

The Proposal

Best.Surprise.Ever.

Flashback to the beginning of December, with Sidney pacing and questioning 'when the heck is this guy gonna propose,' and Andy scheming what could be the best day of her life. The ring was ordered, literally everyone but Sidney knew, and it was time. December 26th, 2020- Best. Day. Ever. We had just visited with Andy's family, where we decided to take a drive on the snowy, completely frozen over Blue Ridge Parkway. While clutching the safety handle for dear life and cursing Andy for going an inch over five miles an hour, Sidney had absolutely no clue what was to come. They hiked down what had to be the prettiest trail ever, snowed over with icicles hanging everywhere- truly magical. They ended up beside a beautiful frozen waterfall, snow blowing and icicles crashing below them. As Sidney cluelessly continued to take as many pictures and videos she could, Andy knelt behind her with the one thing that she had waited for, for seemingly forever. Turning around to see him there, she knew this was it- IT'S HAPPENING! With the sweetest words and the rawest emotion, Andy asked Sidney to marry him.

For all the days along the way
