Our Fairytale

There is one moment that everyone experiences in their life. It could happen anywhere, at anytime, with anyone. A memory that you will never take for granite and never regret. A moment that you will cherish for the rest of your life. It just takes a split second and before you know it you found that person you can't live without. I didn't know it, but December 31, 2012 changed my life forever. Lost for words is something that never happens, although on that night I couldn't help but be speechless. Those stunning green eyes were glued on me. That smile which I could watch for days, never went away that evening. I couldn't help but melt when he held my hand. It felt like a piece to a finally finish puzzle when he wrap his arms around me. As cheesy as this sounds, I didn't know something was missing but that night I fell upon my very own fairytale.

Blind dates are not a everday activity for me and you literally have to expect the unexpected when you go into them. The internet set us up, so you better believe I did my research before walking into it. When I found him I was on Match.com, then added him on Facebook and had long conversations on the phone with him. I felt like I was on an episode of "Catfish." The chemistry was just oozing over the phone and the cute little text messages were the best part of my day. It already felt different from any other flings, dates or relationships I have been in. I was dying to meet him although those nerves and fears came over me. Doubt, fear and vulerability was a emotion I didn't want to feel. Although all the feelings I had already for him, I knew they were true! I had that feeling that I needed to meet this man. I knew I had to take a leap of faith.

December 31st there were a lot of nerves and excitement all at the same time. Any second this perfect man I imagine is suppose to arrive for our perfect night. Literally, the anticipation was killing me!! He texted me, "almost there" and I felt like my heart was going to beat out of my chest! HE ARRIVED!! He got out of the car and I was just standing there outside! I could see him smiling ear to ear from twenty feet away! As cheesy as I am, I couldn't help but just run to him! He picked me up and gave me the best and biggest bear hug I have ever gotten! All that doubt, fear and vulnerability was gone! Without even saying a word, that split second I thought, I finally found him!

Every since that night I haven't gone a day without talking to him. I have never loved and cared for someone as much as I do for him. I have made memories and had adventures with him that are unforgettable! On April 17, 2013 he made me the luckiest and happiest girl in the world. It might seem like a short time knowing someone but with every bone in my body and every feeling or emotion I had, it pointed to the man I need to start my life with.

As a good starting point for the rest of our life, we were walking around the park trying to find his friends that were supposely meeting us there. Apparently he lied his butt off for a couple of days now. I was totally clueless, but at the same time I knew something was up because there wasn't a soul at the park. When we were walking he said, "whats that?", as gullible as I am I turn to see what he was talking about. So far the greatest moment of my life, is when I turn back around. He was on one knee, with the most stunning ring I have ever seen. He said my full name and really cute things that I don't remember because I was in shock from all the overwhelming excitement in one moment. Of course I said "Hell yes" and as soon as he put that ring on that finger, I had a hard time looking at anything else. From the very beginning, I knew he was the one before we even met. That rings symbolizes the love and life we are going to share together. I couldn't pick a better person to marry.

This man treats me like I am the most important person in the world. I have never felt like a princess but with him by my side I feel like a queen. He is sarcastic, funny and down to earth! He is my life, he is my everything and on Sept 14 I will steal his last name! Cory Garrett is the man of my dreams and I am proud to be Mrs. Garrett. The best decision in my life was taking that leap of faith.

I love you Cory!
