It all started with a smooth message through a dating website that I just couldn't ignore. As I always tell everyone, he was the only one that made it past a first date. (It was rough out there...LOL).

Our first date was at a restaurant and immediately there was great conversation and a connection that was unexpected. We learned we both share a love of traveling. Our first big trip out west showed that we could be travel buddies for life!!! We have since been to Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, Arizona, South Carolina, North Carolina, Texas, Louisiana, Tennesse, New York, and Michigan. With hopefully much more exploring to come...

We purchased a house together during the pandemic which came with lots of challenges. But ultimately, we found our first home and have been having a blast making it our own.

Last year we were celebrating our first Christmas together in our home when Ren gave me the best present. The ability to check an item off my bucket list with tickets to see the Dallas Cowboys in Texas.

We took a tour of the stadium a few days before attending the game. During the tour you have access to go on the field. To say I was excited was an understatement. I was so focused on playing catch and trying to kick a field goal I had no idea what was going on behind me. Poor Ren was following me around the field and kept getting down on one knee. Finally, they lied and told me I had to stay in one area because we had limited time. While playing catch his cousin motioned for me to turn around. There Ren was down on one knee… I was so shocked and surprised… I of course said Yes! Everyone Cheered. It was picture perfect! It truly showed how much he cared because it was the best possible way to ask!!

We are excited to see what new adventures this life has for us and can't wait to celebrate with everyone.
