Throwing it way back for this one to our very first picture together! Matthew and I were introduced the Spring of 2010 and started dating shortly there after. I was quickly swept away by Matthew’s skills in music, photography and a host of many other talents. Matthew says he was drawn to my smile and upbeat/positive attitude. As we were dating, we quickly realized we both had a deep commitment to faith and love of family. We desired to start our own family one day. Due to my diagnosis of Turner’s Syndrome, more on that at a later time, we knew adoption would be apart of our story. After dating for almost 5 months, Matthew took me hiking in one of our local state parks. As we were driving around going to our hiking destination, Matthew wanted to pull off at this over look, but there was a wedding and so we had to drive on. I remember wondering why he was so frustrated the wedding was happening at that exact location. Little did I know that was the spot he planned to purpose! We drove on to another beautiful spot overlooking a water fall and that’s where he popped the question. Obviously I said yes and we were married January of 2011. Some people say we were crazy for moving so fast, not even knowing each other a year before getting married. I say “when you know, you just know and there is no reason to wait!”.
