Sometimes, the best adventures start when you least expect them—like when you're just trying to buy a car. We met in what seemed like the most ordinary way: Nikki needed a new ride, and Dave just so happened to be the one to sell it to her. From that first meeting, something sparked between us that neither of us saw coming.

What began as friendly conversations about cars and video games quickly grew into something deeper. Even after the paperwork was signed, we kept in touch—not just to make sure Nikki was happy with her car, but to check in on life itself. And soon, it became clear that our connection was far from ordinary.

Our first lunch? It lasted two hours, filled with laughter and effortless conversation. We weren’t just sharing a meal—we were starting an adventure. A movie and more late-night talks followed, and from that moment, we just clicked. It felt like we had found something truly special.

As time went on, our story continued to unfold, and we grew closer with every experience we shared. Early on, Nikki had the pleasure of meeting Dave’s kids, Aiden and Sage. Before an exciting outing to The Funplex (arcade), Sage made a delicious s’mores dip to welcome Nikki, making the day even sweeter.

As our lives continued to intertwine, we decided to expand our circle further by adopting our cat, Remi, who has brought even more joy and warmth into our home. Through every new adventure and quiet moment, we’ve found that the magic of our relationship isn’t just in the big milestones but in the everyday moments we’ve shared.

Then came the proposal—on the first day of fall (Nikki’s favorite season, of course). Dave surprised her with the most beautiful setup: flowers, candles, and our song playing softly in the background. It was everything we could have dreamed of and more, the perfect beginning to our next chapter.

From salesman to soulmate, we’ve built a life filled with love, laughter, and a bond that continues to grow stronger every day. Now, we can't wait to celebrate this new chapter with all of you by our side.
