Told from the bride

Anthony and I both grew up here in pearland and lived only a few miles away from each other. We attended the same high school, but our paths never crossed previously because there’s a bit of an age difference. Many years later we eventually interacted, thanks to the internet (not through online dating, but from mutual friends on Facebook). He sent me a friend request that I accepted. I had no idea who he was or even how he looked because all the photos he had were of the Astros (Which he still has as his profile picture). There was never an initial interaction and months went by before I received a message from him. His text made absolutely zero sense. My curiosity replied back and we haven’t stopped communicating since. He won me over with his genuine personality and we went out on our first date in April 2021. We became engaged February 2023 and bought our first home together in March 2023!
A few photos from our first dates.
This one of us two was at my sister's birthday, where he meet my family for the first time.
