I had an obsession with an old 1990 F-250 that drove around town. It was beautiful..& LOUD! It caught my attention right off the bat, but I didn’t know who drove it. One night some friends and I went to a bonfire….& after a few beers I went to squat behind a tree. On the way back my belt gave me quite the hassel and I ran head first into the tailgate of that old Ford Pickup! After further investigation I came to the realization that the handsome gentleman that kept himself low key ended up being the owner! “Really?”-I thought to myself…”This young dude owns that nice pickup?” The next day I proceeded to add him on FB. After 3 days of debating my introduction message and not being confident in what to say…He writes me “Hey”.🤦🏼♀️ After a few days of back and forth chit chat we setup a date to hangout. Which he originally ditched out on me…but he’ll never admit to that!🤣 The following day we hungout for the first time. It was a mix of awkward and magical. After a couple 1 on 1 dates he invited me out to see how I got along with his friends. On 10-03-2014 we set out to have fun and after one quick trip to the pickup for a smoke he made it official! He asked me to be his girlfriend and we have been together ever since!
Robert and I knew we loved each other and wanted to one day get married, but he wanted to do it old school. So we took a trip back home to meet my family. We laughed, they were skeptical at first. Robert was the only boyfriend I had ever brought home to meet the family. The only one good enough to know all of my loved ones! He asked my Dad for my hand in marriage…& my dear dad replied with “If you think you can handle her.” Haha thanks dad! After Robert chuckled off the sarcasm spit from my dad’s mouth, he proceeded to ask each of my brothers as well as my mom. Which of course they all gave their blessings! Before leaving to come home the following day, my mother gave Robert my Great Grandmother’s ring to propose with. 5 LONG months later Robert PROPOSED! On our 1 year anniversary he proposed in that old F-250 right in the Denny’s Parking Lot.(He was going to do it inside, but got nervous!) BUT I couldn’t have been more in love! It was perfect for us!
Robert and I have experienced the loss of Loved ones quite a bit throughout our relationship, but the one that hit me the hardest was the loss of my Dad! After losing my dad I had no idea how i was going to pull myself together and carry on. I was and will forever be a daddy’s girl…but Robert stuck by my side! He held me when I cried, and made me feel safe. We have lost Robert’s Grandmother, Mother & now Grandfather….as well as My Dad and Sister. We’ve been through the heartbreak of miscarriages, and financial hardship. We have gone through moves and relocating. Job changes and childbirth. Robert and I have been through ao much these past 7 years and I cherish every minute i get with him no matter the stress or final outcome. Another day with Robert is another day I am Valued and Loved!
We have 3 absolutely beautiful little boys! Waylon our oldest born May 20th 2017 was who made us parents! He came into our life when we needed hope the most…ESPECIALLY me! We found out we were pregnant with Waylon 1 year exactly to the date of my Dad’s passing on Sept. 12th 2016. Waylon had 3 years of being our only child and on May 12th 2021 the Twins Weston & Watson were born! We were oh so surprised to say the least when we found out about the twins. Overwhelmed and shocked but so excited and blessed! Neither of our deliveries were easy…and both were quite traumatic….but the Twins were our first NICU stay. Born at 10weeks early we spent 2 months in the Bend NICU! When I was at my worst and seriously didn’t know how I was going to go on, Robert picked me up and gave me the will. He reminded me of all the GOOD we had/have! He was and will always be my ROCK! Now with all of us home and healthy I see more than ever that my life is perfect and I am soooo beyound blessed for my future husband and our children!😍
We really look forward to spending a beautiful day with all of our loved ones, while committing our love to one another!
