Tanner and I met September 2017 at a restaurant I was working at in Flowery Branch. I couldn't help but notice this handsome bearded man sitting at the bar, he would always try to make jokes and small talk with me but I was too shy to actually talk to him. Then one day he messaged me on Facebook and we began talking every day. Our first date we went to a brewery and I had the best time, the whole time I couldn't help but picture our lives together. I could see right away Tanner was the sweetest, most kind hearted man I've ever met and that was just as goofy as me. A couple months later we officially started dating and I began learning more about Tanner and I couldn't help but fall in love with him. About a year into dating Tanner began working out of state, I won't lie and say it was easy, but I believe it has made our relationship that much stronger. I cherish the times we are together whether its just us laying on the couch or exploring a new city together. December 28,2019. Tanner was home from working we had both of our families over and we were grilling out and watching football and Tanner's sister wanted all of us to take a picture together in the backyard. We all go out there and line up and I hear Tanner say "I think I need to kneel for this", for a split second I was confused but then he got down on one knee and asked to marry me. That was the easiest yes I've ever said! I truly cannot wait to marry the love of my life. I feel so blessed that Tanner came into my life and chose me to spend the rest of his life with.
