It all started with one cold day in January in Byron,

As most good stories do, it started with Ryan (Hynes) and Ryan,

They were there to visit his uncle Jeff and see where the night would take them,

At first they went to the Fifth Alarm Pub that was pretty dead late in the PM,

Just as they were about to cut their losses and go home,

Jeff said let's try just one more before settling on a night of watching Jim Rome,

So the three set out to a final destination called the Cave,

To their surprise they walked in and it was like a rave!

There at the end of the bar sat four attractive ladies,

Jeff introduced the Ryan's and they thought the bigger one was all sorts of crazies,

Ryan Morse started talking to a girl who seemed very nice and quite the catch,

Then she dropped the bomb that she had a baby at home with her perfect match,

Though she could see that Ryan might just be something special,

So she began to talk about her friend that lived in the city with the name of Kendal,

She pulled up some pictures on Facebook of the beautiful girl,

And Ryan thought "why not I will give it a whirl",

Ryan and Ashley then became Facebook friends,

Something Ryan rarely does but that night he had beer by the tens,

While Ryan wasn't looking Ashley sent Kendal a picture,

That read "I met your soul mate" it was like she could read the future,

Kendal woke up to the picture not knowing what Ashley had done,

But after creeping on Ryan's Facebook she gave Ashley the go ahead before she went on a run,

The next morning Ryan drove back to DeKalb reminiscing on the night before,

He was at home when he got a Facebook message, he had no idea what was in store,

To his revelation it was Ashley giving him Kendal's number,

Saying no pressure to call or text her - just don't wait long because she is a stunner,

Ryan thought about it for a day or so then figured "hey, why not",

He sent her a text and hoped that she would send something back to his approach shot,

A few minutes later, his hopes and dreams came true,

With a simple response from her of "I am good how are you?"

Over the next two days the two would text from sun up to sun down,

It was during the 5^th polar vortex that Ryan asked for a date out on the town,

Kendal agreed and they met at a pub in Chicago called "Wilde"

They sat for hours talking, and as the night came to an end they both smiled,

From the first date on Ryan and Kendal knew it was right,

They never parted and both knew they had found "the one" after that night.

For Ryan and Kendal every day since then has been their best one,

And that is why they live by the motto "the best is yet to come"
