Jacob & Caitlyn - August 1, 2015

The first time I met Jacob I knew he was going to be someone special to me. The only thing I can chalk that up to is Divine intervention. We were friends for five months, dated for ten months, and were engaged for ten months before we got married. Within those twenty months of being together we experienced a lot of the difficulties this life has to offer. But one thing remained constant in our relationship: we loved God first, and then each other. We have considered this our recipe for success, because there’s no other way to explain how we have come out on the other side of difficulties a stronger and better couple. We had made it through so much together in such a short time that there was no mistaking that we were meant for each other. Our wedding day was full of excitement and joy for we knew at the end of the day we would be husband and wife. That day was almost four months ago, but it seems like yesterday. I’m so thankful for all the work that was put into making our wedding day beautiful, but I’m so much more thankful for the man I said “I do” to. He’s better than any man I could ever dream up, because he’s real. He’s my person, and I will go anywhere with him. We have realized that dating is difficult, engagement is tough, and marriage is hard. But we also realized it’s all 100% worth it!
