My Love Story

My fiancé David and I have known each other since I was eight years old and he was nine. He has lived behind me my whole life and did boy scouts with my older brother. As we grew up and started middle school we stopped hanging out and never talked. Every once and a while he would stop by my house and talk to my dad. He always had to stop by when I was helping my dad do yard work and I always looked like a hot mess. When he came by, I never looked at him or thought twice about him. During the summer of 2010 I was getting over a two year relationship and was just enjoying some much needed girl time with my friends. One night my friend Brandy (who I've also know since I was two years old) called and told me she was at this kid's house who lived right behind me and asked me to come hangout. As soon as she told me his name I told her she was crazy and told her I did not want to. I thought it would be weird to see him after all these years. But, I did add David on Facebook and we started to catch up. A week later we hung out and I can't say it was love at first sight but I did have a little crush on him. I kept trying to talk myself out of liking him because deep down I knew if we started dating that we would get married. I just did not know if I was ready to take that jump. After the first night we hungout we were pretty much inseparable. I went out of town for about three days right after we told each other that we liked each other and that's when I knew he was the one. I did not put my phone down the whole trip because we were texting 24/7. I want to say we made everything official about a week later on 8/16/2010. On March 13th, 2011 David got down on one knee and asked me to become his wife. We have now been engaged for over a year and are in the process of planning our beautiful wedding that will be held on November 10th, 2012! Follow us on our journey to happily ever after.
