Our Love Story

Picture of Our Love Story

This is our love story, we had walked in and out of each other’s lives for years before ever knowing this is how our story would go. Forest and I begin our love journey in November of 2014, already having a baby girl of my own, Paisleigh whom Forest adored, we would soon welcome our baby boy Brantley in November of 2015, falling in love like we never knew we could. Shortly after Brantley was born, Forest proposed in the most lovable way some one could ask you to be there partner in life all while celebrating the gift of life, Brantley’s 1st birthday! To our surprise, we would soon start a journey of 5 welcoming our bouncing baby girl Hadley in November of 2017, once again giving us a meaning to life we never knew we needed. In November of 2019, we took a vacation to Tennessee with our 3 beautiful kids and friends. This vacation was a vacation we will never forget, it was the start to our PERFECT love story. The one we didn’t get in the beginning, it was for us to unwind, rewind and rekindle and we did just that! Our love story has not been easy, we fought for our love, peace and happiness. We worked hard for the love we deserved, the love god had planned for us, a love that would be our lasting happily ever after. In Tennessee we fell in love with each other in a way we didn’t get to experience in the beginning, this time it was pure, effortless, no baggage, no worries of our past life, no bad memories only good ones, the memories we prayed for, the ones that covered the memories we started our journey on. When we looked at each other we only saw love, love for our kids, love for each other, love for the beautiful life we had built. We have always loved each other, but the love we have now is indescribable. It’s beautiful, breathtaking, warm and endless. That’s why we have chosen Tennessee to host our special day to always remember that vacation, the vacation we fell In love in away I can only describe as looking at the smokies for the first time, the vacation our love story truly started. We can’t wait to share our special day with all of you so you can experience a glimpse of the love we have for each other.

Peter 4:8
Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.

John 4:16
And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them.
