IT’S HAPPENING!!!!

-Tiffany I remember getting dressed up to go to Fountain Square for the second time to go Swing Dancing with a few close friends from my church, St. John’s. I remember thinking it be funny if my future husband was there. I brushed the thought off and drove to meet my friends for dinner before dancing. We showed up and there was a relatively large group of other people from St. John’s there too. I knew a few people in the group, so I went over to chat. A little bit into the night, a handsome man rocking a pretty awesome goatee approached and asked me to dance. I recognized him from the other St. John’s group and said yes. I’m typically a chatty dancer, so we started talking and the conversation was completely natural. He was charming, funny, interesting, intelligent, and had a quirky sense of humor. This was a rather dangerous combination, so needless to say I thought he was pretty cute. I didn’t see him for a little bit until a tailgate party where he was talking with my sister about Star Wars. I only know this because I could hear my sister saying “I don’t really know too much about Star Wars but you should talk to my sister”. I immediately jumped into a conversation where we talked about who were the best Jedi and our thoughts on different episodes. I remember being really disappointed when someone else approached to talk with him. I remember feeling that this conversation was different somehow. At the start of the following year, we attended a winter formal dance called the Magi Ball. Once again, I was just there to dance and have fun with my friends. Partway through the night, David approached me again and asked me to dance. At the end of the Magi Ball, he asked me if I wanted to get coffee with him. I eagerly said yes. Our first date was memorable, beautiful, and was marked by an incredibly unstable table that we spent the first few minutes of our date trying to repair. This proved to be unsuccessful, so my exuberant gesturing caused me to nearly break a mug. From the first date, I never wanted a date with David to end. I feel so incredibly blessed that God put such a fantastic, fun, and musically talented person in my life. I am so grateful to say that as of August 17th, 2024 our dates will be never ending. -David She was hot I asked her out She said yes I put a ring on it She’s awesome Yay (OK mom, here’s the actual story) I didn’t know what to expect going out dancing that night. It was my second night at the place, and I knew maybe two other guys. I remember dancing with some girls from my church, St. John’s, and ran into a short, cute girl. She danced with a big bounce in her step, and was absolutely wonderful to talk to. I remember feeling very comfortable, even in the midst of a lot of strangers. At a tailgate put on by a friend from church, I ran into some people I had met at dancing. I was talking to one girl, and I brought up that I like Star Wars. She told me that she wasn’t a big fan, but that her sister liked Star Wars. The cute, short girl from before immediately turned to us from the person she was talking to and went, “Ooh, Star Wars?” We immediately bonded over Star Wars and other nerdy items. I remembered that, again, she was wonderful, bright person to talk to. When I asked her out at the winter formal dance, I wasn’t sure what to expect. I was just getting back into dating, and I thought it was going to take some time to find a serious relationship. God was certainly chuckling at that. Our first date was amazing, aside from a stubbornly broken table. She was funny, adorable, kind, gentle, yet adventurous. We talked for hours, and as we walked to her car I was nervous that she wouldn’t say yes to a second date, because I really wanted her to say yes. Thankfully, she did. And she said yes again, and again, and again. I’m really grateful for two yes’s in particular. The yes after I first asked her to dance, and the yes when I asked her to marry me.
