Our love story.

We met August 2005 while camping. I couldn't take my eyes off of him and he couldn't help but flirt. We thought nothing would come of it; I headed to school 3,000 miles away and tried to forget him. He never forgot me. He found me on facebook, we became friends and soon were talking every moment we could. During Christmas 2005, we became a couple and began our 3.5 year long-distance relationship. It was hard, but worth it when I graduated and came home in December 2008. In October, we were engaged and are planning our future!

Three important details about our Ultimate Wedding.

Our dream wedding is simple. As long as we can share it with friends and family and be married in a church by the end of it, it's a success. So the three things? friends and family, church and last but not lease (my fiances contribution) a candy bar filled with color-coordinated candies!

Our everyday dream day.

Our everyday dream day would mean that we're married, so we can wake up late next to each other, with sun streaming in and snuggle. We'd get up and make waffles for breakfast before heading out to a park for the day to walk around, enjoy the sun, each other and a homemade packed picnic lunch. Once the sun went down we'd head home and make dinner (probably peanut chicken) then spend the evening watching Red Box movies before snuggling to sleep.
