When we met, we were both at the end of our relationships with other people and were completely unprepared for what was coming next. Fate pushed us together when I took on a new role at UPS which was in Ray’s work area. Ray will tell anyone that his first thought meeting me was, “who’s this newbie? She’ll last two minutes”. Well, I lasted 5 years! One day Ray’s car broke down so he needed a ride to and from work. It was between me and someone else for who would be helping him. Since I lived the closest to him, I was voted. And from there it was history. We’d talk on the way to work and on the way home every day. But then one day, we pulled up to his place and Ray just sat in the car still talking to me. By the end of week two, we were talking in the car for hours. I could tell he was intrigued by my wild side and I thought he was a genuinely nice guy. After ending our previous relationships, Ray finally asked me out. On March 4th, 2017, we ate brick pizza at a little whole in the wall pizza place and took our first photo together. May 14th, Ray asked me to officially be his girlfriend, and after CAREFUL thought, I said yes. On March 15th 2020, Ray got down on one knee in front of our friends and asked me to be his wife. And through the tears with no thought at all, I said yes! We can’t wait to add another chapter to our story with all of our family and friends when we say I do come August 20th, 2021.
