Our Story
Caleb & I met in person in October 2014, however we had known about each other for much longer. Our younger brothers were friends in elementary school so our families were familiar with each other. Caleb's mom had really wanted Caleb to meet me, if there was a kids party at our house Caleb's mom would call my mom and tell her to have me answer the door because Caleb was coming to pick up his brother. Caleb never came, he was too shy, he would call his little brother & tell him that he was waiting for him outside in his car. We would cross paths in high school and I was always curious about this boy that never came to the door.
In October of 2014 we had finally made contact with each other via social media & agreed to meet.
Our first date was so much fun, we first met for coffee. I remember when he walked into that coffee shop our eyes met, he smiled at me & I knew he was the one. For me it was love at first sight. We talked, we laughed and ate dinner, rode on bumper boats & got ice cream at midnight, we had so much fun that night! I just remember how he made me laugh that night. Halloween was our second date & it was just as much fun. We went out for two months as "just friends", then in December 2014 Caleb asked me to be his girlfriend. I remember we went out on a date & around midnight we he pulled up to the driveway to drop me off at home, he was so nervous. He said he wanted to ask me something. He was sweating & shaking it took him forever to finally ask me to be his girlfriend. We dated for several years. while we both finished our college degrees. In April of 2021 Caleb took me to the beach & asked me to marry him. In December of 2021 (the anniversary of when he asked me to be his girlfriend) we got married with our family & friends gathered to share in our celebration.
