We ran into each other on Cocoa Beach, both conveniently single and recently moved to the area. After Cole took me on a couple boat rides through the river and to his favorite Brevard county surf spots, I was already smitten.

I wasn't planning on staying in Florida for long, but after hanging out with Cole for about a month it was easy to see that I was falling in love. There wasn't much we wanted to do without each other. Everything was better together, that was very clear.

Even though it was a great summer and a great fall too, I had an itchy travel bug and I couldn't scratch without going to Peru for extended time. I put our relationship to the test by going on a big trip without Cole

Even though it was a great summer and a great fall too, I had an itchy travel bug and I couldn't scratch without going to Peru for extended time. I put our relationship to the test by going on a big trip without Cole

I was planning to be there for at least three months but I only made it about two. I was homesick, which is rare for me. I missed Cole dearly and couldn't wait to get back. I don't think I'll ever go that long without him again. Here are some photos from the 10 days he did get to spend with me in Peru that year.

I think it's safe to say that ever since Peru we have been addicted to traveling and experiencing life in other countries; but when we're not doing that, we sure do know how to enjoy our life in Central Florida. Thanks to Cole I fell back in love with Florida again. He is the coolest Florida Man ever

Now here we are, three years later, with not much that we know for sure other than we need each other. We can figure the rest out later. We can't wait for our special day, especially surrounded by everyone we love so dearly.
