Out of the six schools I applied to the one college I really wanted to get into, Endicott—-I didn’t. But Tom did and he was going to go there up until the very last minute, when he went to Westfield instead. I actually met his friend from Medway first during orientation to Westfield State and he introduced me to Tom. A few days later I ran into him on the steps of the library. First kiss on a park bench on campus, first date at Friendlys! Fast forward through 1 Masters degree, 2 states, 3 jobs, 4 apartments——- and 11 years later and we are ready to tie the knot in front of those who have truly loved and supported us through it all!
