There are a few stories about the way that Josh and I first met. Friends of ours say that we met in a bar, funny enough neither of us remember that! The first time I remembering laying eyes on Josh was when he came into the salon for a haircut, while I was working. As he walked out of the door, Rebecca looked at me and said, "now that is who we should set you up with!" I giggled and said "yeah he is cute!" It wasn't until a month or so later that I finally friended Josh on Facebook. We started chatting on Facebook messenger, hanging out in our same friend group, and talking everyday! On June 3, 2017 Josh and I had our first date. We went to eat at Qudoba in Manitowoc, saw the movie Baywatch(there was literally no other movies playing), then we stopped at the Gravel Pit for a couple drinks. We had a great time and that is how our relationship started. Now, there have been some ups and downs and moments when I thought I needed to make my children my only focus so we took some time apart. It was very apparent when we were at the Kiel Picnic that I was falling for him and knew that I did not want to spend my life without him. Falling for him was definitely unexpected and also the best thing to ever happen to me. It was even more evident that we were meant to be together when the kids fell in love with Josh just as much as I did!
