Once Upon a Time... back in 2020

Ryan and Natalie were hoodwinked into texting each other, both being told a separate story. One of us was told that the other was already interested (definitely not Ryan) and sent a text with much more bravado, gusto, and moxie than was warranted to a girl who had only seen a picture and heard a brief description. Luckily that text was expertly crafted and she immediately fell for him.

3 years later on August 26, 2023, they went to a very romantic baptism... um, romantic boat ride (you had to be there) where Ryan held out a ring and Natalie said yes! Then they rode down the river into a beautiful sunset and also a torrential downpour (true story).

We can't wait to see what God has in store for us as we move into this next chapter in our relationship.
