Addisen and I met through Mrs. Jennifer Ratcliff at the Taylor’s wedding at Nesselrod on the New in October of 2023. Although we never spoke at the wedding, we both decided we were interested and began texting. After a few weeks, we went on a date at Ginza in Pulaski. Our dinner went by very quickly and neither one of us was quite ready to depart ways so we sat in Addisen’s truck until 9:30 at night when we finally decided we needed to go home because it was a work night. I remember going home and the first words out of my mouth to my mom and friends were “I love him.” We continued to see each other often and continued developing feelings for each other. I met his ENTIRE family at their Thanksgiving dinner in 2023. His family immediately took me in as one of their own. We got engaged at a family vacation in Massanutten, VA on December 21, 2024!
