HOW WE BECAME US!

Ryan and I met at just 11 years old while at a going away pool party. I remember exactly how I felt that night. We were nearly inseparable from that point forward. We dated throughout all of middle school, high school and college and the start of our careers. After dating for 13 years, Ryan FINALLY asked me to be his wife. We got married November 10, 2012 surrounded by our closest friends and family in our hometown at a beautiful church. After getting married, we moved into our beautiful house close to LEGO land and surrounded by great beautiful lakes. We have a nine-year-old Chinese Crested Powderpuff named Gadget, who gets to experience nearly everything with us. Wherever we are, you’ll almost always find her right beside us.

Throughout the years, we have realized that marriage isn’t all that hard when it’s with your best friend. We have learned growing up together has made us who we are today. We’ve been so blessed with encouraging examples from both my parents and Ryan’s. We’ve been able to watch each other grow into people who make us proud and live out dreams we once only talked about. It’s been the most beautiful journey and we can’t wait to share this life we’ve built with our children.
