When two strong-willed people fall in love, they will do anything to be together. The beginning of our relationship, we were 14 hours apart. 2 states between us. We didn't see each other in person but 10 times that first year. But we knew this love was something special. After that first year of us dating long distance, we decided to take the leap, and got our first apartment together in Minnesota. Away from our families and friends. We had to have been crazy! Really, the rest is history after that! Of course, we have had some life experiences along the way. We have traveled, moved to Wisconsin, got a couple cats. All of this, the last 8 years, has made us both appreciate one another in such a deep way. Which brings us to the present. WE ARE GETTING MARRIED!
