Love at first like.

In honor of my Prince Charming leaving for Florida in a week, I decided to dedicate today's post to how we met.

Brody and I grew up in the same town. We went to the same junior high, and even had the same friends. However, Brody was the shy guy and I was the outgoing girl that seemed to be all over the place. In eighth grade I became the wrestling manager. My best friend and I would travel to all the games and talk to all the boys. As an eighth grader it was A DREAM, minus the stench. I remember my best friend Ellise sitting by this scrawny looking boy on the bus. Who was this kid? I ended up noticing him a lot more after that. Brody likes to say I had no idea who he was, but I did. We never exchanged any words. High school went by and somehow we became friends on Facebook. I knew that he had or had, had a girlfriend. As time went on however, I noticed his profile picture was lacking a lady next to him. SCORE!!!!!! I decided to give his page a little look over, just wanted to make sure he wasn't a weirdo. That's when I got carried away. I started liking EVERYTHING. I was to much of a chicken to actually message him so I figured maybe he'd get the hint that I wanted to talk, or he would think I was a creeper. Now that was all fun and games and seems pretty exciting right? I was at a place in my life where I just felt stuck. I knew I wasn't suppose to go on a mission. I was already enrolled in school and working full time, yet something was missing. I got down on my knees that night and prayed to my Father in Heaven to just place him in my life. We didn't need to get married right away, but I just wanted to know he existed. I ended my prayer hoped into bed and decided to check my Facebook. HE MESSAGED ME!! Literally, right after I had gotten off my knees. Call it a coincidence, I call it an answer.... Long story short, he invited me to a game night. I slyly gave him my number, and we went from Facebook messaging to texting. I drove to the game night, with Miley Cyrus blasting. I was on cloud nine. He stepped out of his car, and I knew my whole world had just changed.

Here I am now, over a year later engaged to my very best friend. It was love at first like :)

Love always,
K
