After college, I moved in with Kate and Kira in Portsmouth. At that same time, Jordan moved to Portsmouth with his friends Brendan and Drew.
Jordan argues he was there first! Although Jordan was known to Irish Goodbye often and disappeared without warning, I developed a crush on him, and we became good friends.
Texts became phone calls, and phone calls became our first official date; before you know it we were good friends still When Jordan finally mustered up the courage to ask me to be his girlfriend, I thought the day would never come. Over the next few years, we built our life together and got the love of our lives, Ruby the Dog.
On a trip to Europe in December of , despite Jordan thinking I was fully aware it was happening, I was surprised and excited when Jordan asked if I would marry him. Nicole and I met through mutual friends while living in Portsmouth in At that time, we started texting a lot and getting to know each other. We both like traveling, the tv show Survivor, tacos, 20th-century history, spending time with family, dogs, and countless other things. Our first date was at Barrio, a Mexican bar in Portsmouth that we both love and the rest, as they say, was history.
Over the years since, we moved in together, got a dog, and vacationed all over including skiing in Canada, hiking the Grand Canyon, and visiting Europe. Was a little nervous she might say no, but gladly, she did not. With how hard I procrastinate at things including planning for this wedding!
