I was 24 and well I had basically given up on love. I was to the point where I was honestly content with not getting married. I thought to myself I will never truly be alone. I have nieces and nephews I can spoil, I will get a couple dogs, have a cute house with an awesome closet, and just travel. But ya'll just when I thought I had everything planned out BOOM God threw me a curve ball. It was your normal Tuesday. I got up, went to work, and ran errand for my Best Friend Kortnie on my lunch. So on my lunch I headed to Arvest Bank to purchase a ticket for a concert that was taking place that Friday. So I walk into Arvest and had an absolute clueless look on my face. I head up to the teller line and this tall and handsome man behind the counter says I can help you here! So I tell tell him that I need a ticket and he asked if I had an account there. I immediately got nervous because well I don't bank with Arvest and I was afraid you would have to be a member to buy a ticket. The handsome man then tells me "I don't know why I asked you that you don't need an account to buy a ticket." I bought my ticket and left. I do have to admit while he was waiting on me I was checking to make sure no wedding ring and I made sure I looked at his name tag. There was no ring but I figured he is way to cute to not be taken. So when I went home that night I looked him up through a facebook friend that I saw working at the same branch that day. I found Coltney Race Shibley and added him as a friend. Well Colt accepted my friend request and well the rest is history ya'll!
A question I love people asking me is "when did you know Colt was the one?" Honestly I kinda always knew. Our relationship was effortless, drama free, and for the first time I felt like I could be myself and not what someone wanted me to be. Plus I always said that my nieces and nephews would be the ultimate test of how I would know if I had found "the one". Well Colt and my nieces and nephews hit it off instantly and at that moment I knew he was it for me!
Is our relationship perfect? ABSOLUTELY NOT! No relationship is perfect! Is our relationship real, based on respect, built on a strong foundation of friendship? Absolutely YES! Colt and I have developed a strong foundation over the last two years and well I know that our marriage will be strong. So today I dedicate this post to my Best Friend and my true love Coltney Race Shibley! Colt you make me a better woman everyday and I could not thank you enough for loving me for who I really am!
Until next time friends have a blessed day!
