From the very first time we hung out, I knew! Alexis showed me her true loving, funny, and kind-hearted self. She was immediately comfortable being herself around me. I've always felt in sync like she's my other half. We finish each other's thoughts and sentences and unconsciously dress in the same colors (seriously, with no planning).

Quick story... After hanging out all weekend, I took her back to campus to drop her off at her dorm. We talked for about two hours outside because neither of us wanted to leave each other. While she was sitting on the back of my Mustang, I uttered, "I can see myself marrying someone like you when I'm 30"...

Little did I know our love story had already begun. A year and a half later, I found myself cornering her dad in the laundry room, asking him for his daughter's hand in marriage. It doesn't even feel like 10 years have passed sometimes, but our lives have been blessed beyond measure.
