Matthew and I met at church. I met him as a member of our church youth group. We enjoyed our time growing up together. He always was the guy that always made me laugh.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Dating is such a scary thing. Matthew and I were friends for a long while before we considered dating. I think that we have both learned to listen to one another. Matthew and I enjoy the time that we have with one another, and always take time to have some fun. Laughter is never a bad thing.<\/span><\/div>\n

Matthew is a sneaky little guy. I told Matthew that I wanted to go hiking. It’s something that we enjoy doing together, and we hadn’t been in a while. After work Matthew told me to get ready, we were going hiking. At our favorite spot in Cloudland Canyon, he asked me to look at the view. As I turned around, he was there on one knee with the ring in his hand. I was a surprised and happy lady.<\/span><\/div>\n
