We aren't 100% on the timing of our first meeting. It was sometime in the early 2000s during swim, school or mutual friends involved with both. Fast forward to 2016, we both happened to be having a drink with a friend at the same bar. A few drinks later, liquid courage set in and Kyler came up to say hi. The rest has been history every since. :)
Kyler had convinced me that he had won massages in a school raffle when he was working Excelsior Springs - he had me pick a weekend and of course I picked the soonest available. Mind you, I was prepared for a massage - not for what was actually to come - no make up, sweat pants, hair a mess! Anyways, we keep driving north for some time, I didn't think too much of it until we kept driving and this one particular area started to look familiar. The thought that he was going to propose crossed my mind, but then I thought "no...he isn't doing that today..." Well, I was gladly wrong. A few moments later Kyler pulled up to the venue of our 1st date and asked me if I trusted him. My stomach dropped, but of course I trusted him. He had us sneak onto the property, sat me down on the bench of our 1st kiss and asked me to spend forever with him. I honestly couldn't think of a more perfect way :)
