Ashley & Nick we’re friends for a long time. They saw each other through tons of life’s obstacles. When Ashley broke her ankle, Nick felt bad that no one was spending time with her so he invited her over. It ended up becoming a a continuous thing. Flash forward a few weeks, they are sitting in Nicks room watching Rambo as he nervously rushes around his room. He finally grows a set, sits down and reads from a piece of paper. To summarize the long note, Nick liked ashley for 4 years, she was his dream girl and he wanted to let her know. Ashley said she had to leave——& she did.😂 Well when she got home she told him she felt the same way, she just isn’t good at in the moment reactions. Low and behold they start kind of dating. No one was making It official since Nick was leaving for basic training in 2 months. That is until They finally decided to make It official 5/31/2013. Two crazy kids in love. ❤️ Two months later, Nick left for basic training. Ashley stuck by him. And was there the day he graduated. That New Years Eve, they were holding a party for their friends. At midnight, Nick proposed in total Nick fashion. Ashley said Yes.💍 Friends recorded the video. Yes we still have It. For the next few years, they would look into planning a wedding but never actually did it. But their relationship did see different challenges that they did not expect. They grew together, rather than apart. (We’re not Perfect, we won’t pretend to be). In May of 2017, they finally moved in together. A little cottage. They liked It. It was challenging but they never gave up. Then the next obstacle came. In April 2018, Nick got word that he would be getting deployed. For 10-12 months. Ashley agreed to stand by his side. And she did. (I probably still am if you’re reading this. I’m not sure when he’ll get to come home. 😭). And now, finally, after being so indecisive, they have set an official date. November 8, 2019, they will continue into the next chapter of their lives!
