I GET TO MARRY MY BEST FRIEND AND MAN OF MY DREAMS!

Matt and I spent almost every summer night together at AK's Coffee drinking coffee or at the Auburn Airport wathcing planes come in and sitting and getting to know each other. These were two special places for them. On Friday July 30 Matt and I went with Becca (Matt's sister) to move her things to Troy. We spent the whole day down in Troy and drove back to Auburn later that night. Matt and Becca had planned for all of us to go to dinner for Becca's last night in Auburn so Matt dropped me off to get ready and then picked her back up around 9. Matt told me they were goingg out to Tiger Town to meet Becca and her boyfriend Trevor. After missing 2 turns, I was getting irritated with Matt and so he had to change his plans and turn before he wanted to. It was perfect because his destination was the airport and a plane was coming in to land. Matt quickly said he wanted to go watch the plane land before we went to dinner. I agreed and once we arrived at the airport, Matt and I got out of the car and sat on the picnic bench we used to always sit at when we would come out to the airport to talk. Matt began talking about our relationship and how 2 years ago from that day he had made a phone call that changed his life for the better. He talked about how he knew I was the one God had picked out for him from the day we met. He pulled a Bible out and opened it to 1 Corinthians 13 and began reading the " Love Chapter." He related that to our relationship and then closed the Bible. On the front it had engraved the name Brittany F. Lindsey. Matt got on his knee and asked me to marry him....and of course I SAID YES!
