We started working at the same restaurant. We were friends for about a year and a half before dating. Everyone always encouraged us to be together because we had such strong chemistry others noticed. It developed naturally for us and we got close fast. We focused on having a strong friendship along with love blooming between us. We’ve always been able to have so much fun together and it’s only getting better over time. We are now going on 9 years together and looking forward to many more.

We have so many amazing memories together it’s hard to narrow it down. I will probably say our first major trip together. We went to Hawaii and it was not the easiest thing to get there the flight was delayed we had to make abrupt changes but it really showed how well we can work together in a difficult time. We ended up having the best trip ever and ended the trip with an engagement. Now we travel everywhere and we can and roll with whatever difficulties that come while still having fun!

We would put it towards starting a family. We really look forward to becoming parents together and have taken a lot of time to educate ourselves about the process and changes that will come. This would be a great financial boost to help us move forward with that major goal. We are so excited to build a strong healthy family together.
