Joshua and Abigail met through friends. They were both attending the same fireworks show on The Fourth of July! After the fireworks Abigail and Joshua decided to stick around with friends. That evening, Joshua and Abigail talked for hours, laughed a lot, and exchanged numbers. From that day forward, they have been inseparable.
Joshua proposed to Abigail in Indianapolis on a beautiful bridge over the river. Abigail had absolutely no idea and was completely shocked…but definitely thrilled. About a week after getting engaged, Abigail graduated from Ball State University. Two days after graduation, Joshua got deployed for six months. Joshua and Abigail talked every day, multiple times a day. Deployment was the hardest yet most rewarding experience they have both been through. It made them incredibly strong and realize just how strong their love for each other is.
