My senior year of high school, Emily walks into the ag class and starts drooling. From that moment forward she would never stop thinking about me. She always had to sit next me in class, then we went on a career day field trip where she wouldn't leave me alone. Then the ag teacher sent us back with four whole bags of old chicken tenders from one of the stations. That's when she took her first ride in my big pick 'em up truck.

From that moment on, somehow she got my number and basically would never leave me alone. I felt bad for the poor girl. So, I took her on a few dates and then we were at Culver's one time and some other girl caught my eye (I had a conversation with her) and Emily got mad and stopped talking to me.

Fast forward five or so years, Dalton and I headed into the big city of Madison, Wisconsin for a night out on the town. We were at the bar, I turned around and there she was - an angel sent from above, Emily.

I spent that summer driving into Madison each day after work, hung out with her and then would make the dreaded drive back at 3 am, just to do it all over again the next day.

Once she graduated from college, she moved in with me and all my boys at UW Sauk Alpha Alpha Alpha (my frat house) (that's how you know she's a real one). She also got a dog.

We've been basically everything but legally betrothed to each other in the eyes of the government and the good lord above ever since. The frat boys have left, the dog has stayed and we've somehow accumulated even more animals.

Now that you're caught up to speed, we'd love to see you at our wedding. The end.
