Although we grew up in Oxford together, Manuel and I did not get to know each other until college- conveniently, while I was attending the University of Alabama and while Manuel was at Ole Miss. God has a funny way of bringing people together who are meant to be together; even if it meant waiting until we were no longer in the same town to start dating! We are eternally grateful for His perfect timing and are so excited to be one soon- almost eight years down, forever to go!
