I went into college with the intention of getting into the nursing program, finishing school and becoming a travel nurse. I wasn't sure if or when I'd get married. I knew I wanted to, but I just couldn't imagine myself spending forever with one person... I honestly just didn't want to think about it.
The night Ryan stepped into my life changed my perspective a bit.
We were at a bonfire. I was less than impressed with the guys who had approached me. After having multiple guys ask me to go on a walk with them ( at 10 at night at the sand dunes? Really?), go out and look at stars ( yeah, that's not awkward at all), and one wanted to show me his "super sick" tire rims (charming, right?) I was ready to go home.
But then a tall, handsome, quite confident man from Texas came up to me and changed everything.
To make a long story short, he added me on facebook, got my number and we became good friends. After a little while, I got over my fear of serious relationships and I decided I was his.
On January 15, 2010 he asked me to become his wife.
I felt like the luckiest girl in the world.
I was marrying my best friend.

We have now been married for more than two years and couldn't be happier or more in love. We still act like newly weds and get that "Oh brother" look every once in a while when out in public.
We now have a sweet little girl who is such a blessing in our lives. Life couldn't be better.
Our Father in Heaven has blessed us with so much. I will be forever grateful.
I remember that night at the bonfire! After we all became acquainted and friendships started blossoming, I remember him telling me that he wanted to ask you out and when he wanted to ask you to marry him. Sweet memories <3 I love you guys, and I love your blog.
