Wasn’t love at first sight, but...

Funny story: the first time Billy “met” me.. he thought I was annoying because I had a little too much to drink before the Jason Aldean Concert. I was young & didn’t pay much mind. But, when I saw him at a softball game that he plays (3x HOCO champs), boy, did I have a crush?

We would see each other out & about and had a flirty relationship, but nothing ever came of it until really two years later. (Billy stands by the fact that “he knew” during this time; he just needed me to figure it out as well”.. I don’t really know all that but its cute to hear (;) 

Flash forward two years after meeting & basically living two separate lives at this point; a boat day came around via our mutual friends. Abby texted Billy asking if he wanted me on the boat, and he said, “Yeah.” Bella showed up, and we haven’t left each other's side since that day. We spent a lot of time at Tony Locos LOLOL. He called me every day on his way home from work to ‘just see how my day was’. I was becoming more and more into this guy named Billy West.

We became official around Dec 2, 2019 (I picked a random day) after a few months of “dating,” & we moved in together in March 2020 when the world shut down & we learned very quickly if this was going to work or not. Thankfully; we were 100% meant to be. This love is just completely worth it, easy & just feels so right at every high & even every low. Billy finally decided to ask me to marry him on December 1, 2023 (after keeping me patiently waiting the whole entire year) & I just still pinch myself that he gets to be my husband! We cannot wait for you all to join us to celebrate with us as we start the rest of our lives!!
