It all started thanks to our wonderful parents as we grew up 5 houses down from one another. Throughout grade school and high school we were best of friends. Whether it was car rides through the valley, talks on the phone or eating out at any and all restaurants we always seemed to be together or in some sort of communication with one another. As college and time for grad school came we still remained in touch via facetime or phone calls. A chipotle/robeks trip with Justin was always one of Ashley's first stops on her weekends home. When Ashley was finally back in Cleveland to stay the two spent more and more time together. Ashley finally came to her senses and realized Justin had always had her heart. We got engaged on June 11 at the Bixby Bridge in Big Sur California and can't wait to spend the rest of our lives together!
