Well, I think I'll start this story off when I left for college. I grew up in Lincoln, North Dakota. And when I departed for college, I was headed to Nebraska. It was a very small Christian college in NE, and I had received a scholarship to play volleyball there.
This is me only a few weeks after I got there.
After only a few weeks in I already had a crush on the cute soccer player from Tennessee who sat in front of me in bible class.;)
This is Mr. West!
Well, needless to say, after a few months of hanging out as friends we started dating.
This is us!
However, two years into college I realized that the private school thing was a little to pricey for my blood, and I needed to find a cheaper place to finish out my schooling. We were getting pretty serious at this point, and we realized that if we wanted to make this work we would need to make the move together. He wanted to go north to my hometown and I wanted to go south to his hometown. I guess everyone wants what they haven't had:)....Well, we currently live in TN, so I guess I won:)!
So we moved to TN, got jobs, went to school, and things were good. About a year later, on Christmas morning after all the presents were opened, he throws me one last present. I had NO idea! I was in my Christmas pajamas. I know what you're thinking, and the answer is yes, I am wearing an elf hat...
(And there is a great story that goes along with the girl that has her mouth hanging open in the background, I'll save that for later though)
We planned the wedding the whole next year, and got married January 1, 2011.
Yay!!!!
And that is our story. I hope you enjoyed it! I know we did.;)
