Ramiro and I first met during our sophomore year in high school and initially paid each other no attention. We met one evening over my friend’s house Abril Solis, who happens to be Ramiro’s cousin. I was there to change clothes prior to going back to Glenn for a dance recital. When Ramiro came into the room at Abril’s house, we both could have cared less about who the other was, although I thought he was cute. Fast forward to senior year, I began to notice how nice he was and could tell he had the hots for me. Ramiro would pick on me just to get close. Every morning prior to class he would find me and make smart comments, he would say that “I looked lost”. That was his way of engaging me without making it noticeable. I would make my color guard sisters go to Burger King in Kernersville so I could see him when he would work. Anyone who knows me knows I love to eat, and he would give me free food. Guess he knew deep inside that food would be the key to my heart. I think Ramiro finally realized I was stalking him and during the spring semester of senior year, we started hanging out. I would go and spend the night with Abril and Ramiro would come over and watch movies, and listen to music with us as we all exchanged weird stories about our high school experiences. On March 9, 2012, we started dating and two weeks later he asked me to senior prom. While I was in school at NC A&T, I would come home to Winston on the weekends so we could hang out. I think we both knew that we had found “the one”. Ramiro and I are so excited to start our life together and we cannot wait to celebrate with each of you on September 1st. Thanks for helping us make our wedding day one to remember. #BeautyandtheBeast2012
