Our story started out almost 7 years ago when we met at White Water in Branson, MO in the summer of 2010. We started a friendship that summer as lifeguards and it grew all summer long into the off season. Thayne was by my side when I started college and came up to hang out with me. Our friendship became stronger and Thayne asked me out that fall. We started dating October 21st, 2010 and have been going strong since then. He has been through the ups and downs with me throughout the years and been so flexible with my school and work schedules. I can't think of anyone else I would rather spend the rest of my life with.
