Blakely & Benjamin

Just friends…

Benjamin and I started out as friends in November of 2019, right in time for Thanksgiving! I was glad to have a great friend and Benjamin decided to play the long game!

Maybe a little more than friends..

So the friendship only lasted a few months and in March of 2020 Benjamin asked me to be his girlfriend and I obviously said yes! And then Covid hit….

Covid-tastic!

The first 6 months of our relationship were spent in Covid lockdown! Though it was rough, we made the best of it with many Taco Mama dates and Star Wars marathons!

Formal Fun!

Though our first year of dating wasn’t as conventional, we had the best time and really loved every minute!

Time had to be found but was filled with many fun dates as Blakely started nursing school and Ben was working full time!
