Alex and I happened to attend the same school since elementary. We knew of each other but never really had the chance to interact. Often times Alex and I would walk past each other at school or at basketball games. It felt like Alex and I were always running into one another from time to time. It wasn’t until we both started working at Little Caesars in 2010 that the magic began! We hit it off well! It was always fun to go to work because we would get along so well. We had similar interest in music, sports and even family values! It wasn't until our very first date (Prom 2011) that our relationship took off. With all the laughs and great times we shared, we truly allowed ourselves to start the foundation to our relationship. We’ve been together ever since.. and I tell you now, “Don’t let true love pass you by”.

"T'was the night before Christmas, when all through the house- there were people everywhere quiet as a mouse. They stood in the hall with roses to spare, in hopes that Stephanie soon would be there!" LOL As I walk out of my mom's room, I see the most important people in my life lined up waiting to greet me with a rose. It wasn't until I got to the end of the line that I see the love of my life on one knee. I said, "Yes!"
