It all started back in 2001, in the bustling hallways of Waltrip High School. We remember seeing each other for the first time—there was an instant connection, something unspoken that lingered in the air between us. But, at that moment, it was just a spark of attraction, nothing more than friendship, and we each went on our separate ways after graduation.

Life took us in different directions. Over the years, we grew and evolved, learning, experiencing, and becoming the people we were always meant to be. But fate had other plans.

In 2018, after all those years, we reconnected. The years apart had only made our bond stronger, and the love we once dreamed of rekindled. The flame that had started so many years ago had never truly gone out—it had simply been waiting for the right moment to burst into something real.

Now, here we are, ready to spend the rest of our lives together, grateful for the path that brought us back to each other. What once was a dream is now our beautiful reality.
