Once upon a time.. our story begins in words and text right off the pages of a great profile on a dating website.
A year later our story is just as amazing as the first words.. first text.. first time hearing a voice.. our first multiple hour conversation.. and our first date meeting each other, an amazing time walking around and getting to play glow in the dark putt putt golf. You just know when you have met an amazing person, and know when you have met the one!
After so many dates, activities and fun.. deep.. open.. scary.. conversations, tests, checks and always working great as a team.. we become a couple. Everything happens for a reason, a season or a lifetime. We have found ours.. our lifetime.
Much to the chagrin of Chaney's parents, Drew moved in with her at the end of July after having awesome vacations to the Dominican Republic and to Northwest Arkansas so that Drew could meet Chaney's parents. Little did everyone know but we had already started talking about marriage since there was such a strong "click" and, like the story goes, we just "knew."
As we started honing in on when/where we wanted to get married, it became apparent that Jamaica in January was perfect! Now, Drew just needed to propose:) After getting the blessing from Chaney's parents, Drew very romantically proposed during a long-weekend vacation in Cabo on Saturday, November 5th. He did an awesome job on the engagement ring and now we are just looking forward to celebrating our wedding with family and friends. |
