Well, after much hesitation, Matthew and I decided to share our lives via the internet. We figured in a few years it would be fun to look back and remember the moments in our first year of marriage!
The Story of Us….
We both grew up in small town Abilene, TX. We went to Madison Middle School together but didn’t pay much mind to one another. In fact, Matthew switched over to Lincoln Middle School after our 6th grade year. My mother eventually taught him in the 8th grade. He broke a thermometer in her science class and she almost sent him to the office! We met back up was in college at Texas A&M years later. We hung out a few times our freshman year and even had our very first class, Math 141, together at 8:00 am MWF. I watched him walk in late everday, when he came. I lived with his neighbor, Cricket, one summer while he was off during an internship. And after graduation, we went on a casual date back in College Station and I had to have chaperones ;). After trips to Australia and Washington D.C. somehow we both ended up in the same place…..Dallas, TX!!! We had kept in touch through email and as fate would have it, this is where we both ended up. And with mutual friends we started to hang out and discovered God’s greatest gift in each other; love. When Matthew's appendix ruptured in late July, I realized this was it. Maybe it was “Florence Nightingale” syndrome, or just our epiphany, but I found myself at Baylor Irving to see him every single night. Somehow what was always right in front of me finally made perfect sense. We were engaged with in four and a half months and married with in a year.
