In April of 2017, they found each other on an online dating site called Plenty of Fish. They were both looking for THE ONE. They met shortly after in Austin Tx. He lived in Abilene and she lived in Austin. Shortly after meeting, in May of 2017, he stole her away from Austin and have been together ever since. The cowboy rode away with the princess. Just when they didn’t think they would find what they were looking for, they found each other.
This was one Big day. The day was November 25, 2017. Melvin and Jessica had gone home to Abilene to be with family for not only Thanksgiving but also Melvin’s birthday. But much more was about to come. Melvin had planned out this day for some time without Jessica knowing or even suspecting. So many people knew before-hand, including her soon to be in laws, her friends, his friends, and few others. Just after dinner, Jessica was presented with her very own cake, oblivious to the reason. With phones held out, video and pictures being taken, she unfolded the covering over the cake and read the question. Melvin was smiling ear to ear and excited to watch what was unfolding before him. The cake read “Will You Marry Me”. With everyone so excited, and Jessica in tears, she said “YES!” Melvin so excited he couldn’t wait to slip that ring on her finger. Not only was it Thanksgiving and a birthday but now a day to remember with a proposal. Still one day they will always remember and still look back on.
