Five years ago today, I was heading back to my college town
with the guy I’ve loved since I was 18 years old
eating dinner at our favorite restaurant
walking around the campus where we met
deciding to spend the rest of our lives together
Happy Engagement Day to the man who was so excited to propose to me
that he forgot to get down on one knee.
and I’ll never let him live it down.
I love you.
–Bean–
PS. Today also happens to be my best friend’s birthday.
She’s been my best friend since we were 12
and I’m lucky to have her in my life.
Happy Birthday Katharine!

This was the sweetest most adorable post ever.
I love that you married your college sweetheart! Mark and I met in college but didn’t date. Our backstory is pretty adorable though, and maybe I’ll share it someday soon if he decides to get some moolah together and propose. 😉
