Just your typical high school love story! We met our sophomore year, in a class we shared! Justin was always so quiet and reserved and we all know I have never been described using the words "quiet and reserved". I always told myself that we would just be friends.. but we all see how that worked. We started talking and became really good friends, turned into flirting, turned into dating. I spent Friday nights wearing shirts with his name on them, sitting in the bleachers watching football games, followed by movie nights with his family. We were kind of inseparable, and I am sure everyone that wasn't us hated it! Our love story is cliche, but there's also things that make it ours. I am so happy to have Justin and to be marrying my best friend.
April Fools! I am sure that is what many people thought was coming next when Justin invited friends and family over to propose to me on April Fools Day. My best friend was in charge of getting me ready and keeping things a secret.. she's not so good at the secret thing. All evening she kept calling my ring an engagement ring, changing plans last minute... about an hour in I had a pretty good idea what was going on. What I was not expecting.. was pulling up to my house and everyone we love standing outside waiting. He thought of all the things, it wasn't some big extravagant event but it was a meaningful one and had all the people there that we love and care for. It was a day I'll never forget, and I am so happy he wasn't playing an April Fools Day joke!
