In 2013, we met and went on a first date. We both remember it fondly. We both remember talking until the restaurant closed down. We both remember that we talked about how important our families are to us. We talked about future goals and things we wanted to accomplish. We talked about our pasts and how close we actually grew up from each other and never knew... and yet.... neither of us can remember why we stopped talking and texting....

I (Bonnie) ended up moving to Baton Rouge to try and get my Masters in education from LSU.

I (Caleb) continued working at Halliburton in Bossier City.

Years later...

I (Bonnie) graduated from LSU with my Masters in Curriculum and Instruction. It was an amazing day, surrounded by family and friends... and yet it became even more special when...

I (Caleb) sent her a message on Messenger congratulating her on accomplishing her goal that we had talked about all those years ago.

We kept texting and eventually ended up going on our 2nd first date at the same restaurant.

We both believe that God has his plan for everyone and that he knew what he was doing when he allowed our paths to cross more than once.

I (Bonnie) can't imagine my life without him. He has brought so much joy to my family and to my life.

I (Caleb) have been waiting for someone like Bonnie all my life. She is the love and balance I never knew I needed.

We hope you enjoyed reading a little bit about our story. We absolutely can not wait to continue that story with yall at our wedding!
