It was my first year working at Cheyenne Frontier Days for Pure Dixie. The second day being there Dixie mentioned that I should go dancing with her brother Matt. She insisted that it would be a great time and that Matt would not hit on me. I had heard of this group of Christian guys that Matt would hang out with and that they would go on these fun trips. I figured all of the guys would be quite a bit older than me, so I figured going dancing with the whole group would be fun.

Before we could go dancing Matt and I finished closing up the booth for the night. The group of guys stood outside of the booth waiting on the two of us. As I was closing down the booth, I had to grab the displays bags that were hung up on the outside of the rack. When I grabbed the bags and turned back around to head back into the booth, I noticed this cowboy looking fella sitting on one of our stools. All I saw was this mustache and the prettiest smile I have ever seen. I figured that there was no way that this guy was single and didn't think much more about it.

Eventually we all make it to the Outlaw Saloon where Matt tells me that I need to get each of his friends on the dance floor. I accept the challenge and start asking each of the guys to dance with me. This guy with the mustache refuses to dance with me all night long. I asked him several times, and he continued to say no. This made me absolutely insane. He waited until one of the last songs of the night to dance with me. I was pretty pleased with myself that I got him to dance with me at all. They take me to the house I am staying at, and I immediately jump into bed and start stalking this Taylor Dick guy on Facebook. It took a while to find him and of course like any guy his Facebook was severely outdated. I couldn't find out much about the guy besides he owned an orange mustang.

The next morning, I wake up for work and start talking to Sammi about this guy I met and how he piqued my interest, but I wasn't really sure what to do about it. She convinces me to tell Dixie because she can get Matt to come back the next weekend and bring Taylor with. The tricky part was that Taylor needed to think this was his idea or I may scare him off. Dixie convinced Matt to come back and Matt then talked to the group of guys and got them to come back. All week the Pure Dixie girls and I would talk about this mystery guy, and we would count down the days until I got to see him again.

The second time hanging out with Taylor he did not say a word to me until we got to the Outlaw Saloon. When we got there, he asked me to dance immediately and then continued to ask. By the end of the night, he asked for my number as we walked out the doors and the rest is history.
