we're getting married!

Gage and I met through social media in 2017, when I was 13 and Gage was 14. We finally went on our first date at Southpark Mall movies seeing 47 Meters Down! Following this we were inseparable for months. Things did not work out, but we remained close friends. We decided several months after parting ways to try our relationship again. The timing was still not right this time, and we went on to not speaking for several years. In 2024 Gage and I began hanging out again and it was an instant reconnection. We have been inseparable ever since! The third time is the charm ;)! 
Our engagement story begins with a family trip on a Disney Cruise! It was a Tuesday, and we got off the boat to spend time on Disney's Castaway Cay. Following spending time together on this beautiful island we headed back to the ship to get ready for dinner! (Me being on my first cruise I was not aware they usually don't head up this early to the boat.) We got ready and headed to the top deck for drinks (which I didn't know was not their normal.) The sun was setting right over Castaway Cay and Gage pulled me aside, said the sweetest words and got down on one knee. It wouldn't be true Gage fashion if he didn't open the box upside down! (Yes. That really happened LOL) It was the perfect proposal! My family was able to be on Facetime. We spent the rest of the night sharing the news with our closest friends and family! It was the perfect evening!
