It all (finally) began with a lost jacket

on a broken car seat and a phone call.

Our story began on my birthday in 2015 when Taylor needed a ride from the bar to her car. We had been hanging out with friends and for the first time, really getting to know each other outside of a professional setting and ended up hitting it off.

There had been a recall on my passenger side car seat so Taylor had to ride on the floor, but for some reason, it was so romantic she left behind her jacket like Cinderella and the glass slipper. Only I knew exactly who's jacket it was and suspected she did it on purpose. To this day, she still denies it.

We had about a month before she would make the move to Oklahoma. We saw each other nearly every weekend and often even more than that. A year later, when her apartment lease was up, I made my move and presented her with an excel spreadsheet outlining the financial benefits of her moving back to Dallas and in with me. I had already made space for her in my closet, and cleared out more than half of my dresser to deny her any chance of saying no. Lucky for me, my efforts worked like a charm, and she said yes! Who knew that what started with a broken seat and and desperate excel spreadsheet would be the beginning of our happily ever always. We are both thankful that the rest of our road has been a whirlwind of laughs, wine, and traveling.
