I was a the "when you least expect it" person and Shannon is "persistence pays off" person.

We weren't the couple that met in college, through friends, or at work. We were the random strangers who jumped online. I had no expectation and Shannon happened to come across my page. From small chat through text it led to the first date. From coffee, to a movie (Monster's University), I was lost for words and well....Shannon was just lost with my loss for words. With a 7 hour long first date and having our first 3 dates within the first 48 hours of meeting, we quickly became inseparable.
