from Kristin

Our story starts off a long , long time ago - even before Kristin was born ! Blake attended the same preschool class as Kristin ’ s brother , Jonathan , and our first picture together has a pregnant Cheryl standing next to Blake , so , technically , our first picture together was actually before Kristin was even born . Fast forward about fifteen years , and one day Kristin saw a couple of good-looking twins at the pool she was lifeguarding . She instantly told her best friend , Andi , that she was going to marry one of those twins ; while it seemed destined to happen , only time would tell which twin it would be ! In 2015 , Blake was out with
LOCAL LOVE : Kristin + Blake
friends at a local bar and first noticed Kristin . It is fitting that the name of this local bar is “ The One ” because it was where we each met ‘ the one ’. Thinking that she was pretty , Blake asked her to dance . Naturally , Kristin said no . However , as the night progressed , the two talked , laughed , and started to crush on one another . After some talking , we finally went on our first date . And look at us now . After a few years of dating and a year of engagement , we are finally married . We plan to stay in Quincy , raise a family , and live happily ever after .
