Brent and I first met on Facebook, of all places! He messaged me first and we hit it off instantly. We arranged to meet in person at the annual Yesteryear Christmas Parade. We talked all day everyday after. There was an unforeseen circumstance that caused us to part ways, but he was always in the back of mind, and I his (so he says). 6 years later I grew the courage to message HIM on facebook. We met up at the park, and have been inseparable since. That was 5 years ago. Now with a family and a wedding, things really do seem to work themselves out.

Brent proposed in Tennessee after getting my hopes high and squashing them as soon as we entered Gatlinburg. “ I was going to propose on this trip, but you wanted to wait until after school so we will.” Immediately I was bummed. I went the entire trip without an inkling of what would happen. The last day, we were leaving the city and stopped off at a massive outdoor mall. He took me into a photo booth and popped the question as the pictures were being taken and then…they failed to print. We’re getting married nonetheless and we couldn’t be more excited!
