We met our freshman year of college through our student ministry. We became quick friends. Anytime you saw one of us, you could assume the other was quick behind. Through in and out crushes on each other, plenty of memories, and a trip across the world, Carson finally appeared at my front door shaking with yellow flowers in hand ready to ask me out on our first date. The most nervous, wow-it's-actually-happening, fun, first date-date ever.
