Terrel and Morgan were introduced to each other by Morgan's brother, Bryce. Terrel and Bryce served together for 6 weeks on their mission in Utah. When Terrel came home from his mission in Nov. 2002, Bryce, Morgan, & some friends from Utah all went to Waycross, GA to see Terrel. Well, nothing really happened while we were visiting; but once we got back home to Bham, Terrel called just to make sure we made it safely b/c there had been really bad weather(what a sweetheart). Well since that day, we haven't missed a day of talking to each other :):) We decided to start talking and then we started seeing each other, we would drive back and forth from Waycross to BHAM and vice versa, and sometimes meet in Macon, GA(Morgan's grandparents live there). We developed a very strong relationship even though it was mostly long distance...and finally made it official a few weeks later. Well our love for each other grew stronger and stronger and we were seeing each other as often as possible.
.....Then I went to Terrel's house for my Spring Break for a few days....then he was supposed to come to my house for Easter or the week after, but he begged me to come back down there, so I did. It was April 27, 2003(the sunday after Easter).... we were not able to be together for Easter and he knows how much I love ALL holidays...so he wanted to do an easter egg hunt for us. so he did it was soo sweet, adn i was so excited about everything i was finding, he had roses for me, and my fav. candy, and a cut elittle pink bunny at the very end with something SPARKLY tied around its neck--it was a DIAMOND RING-- i couldn't believe it he asked me to MARRY HIM!!! of course i said YES!!! we have it all on video( i am very grateful for that). it was a very sweet engagement.
......then came the wedding plans-- AHHHH!!! we set the date for Sept. 6, 2003---my brother Keith didn't come home from his mission until late august 2003 and i really wanted him to be there so we set the date for sept. we got everything scheduled, flowers ordered, reception place booked, etc. etc. everything went REALLY smooth thank goodness. So Sep. 6, arrived FINALLY....we were sealed in the Atlanta Georgia temple at 10:20 and 20 seconds on 9/6/03. it was one of the happiest days in my life.
.....Reception-- we actually had 2 receptions--one in bham and the other in Waycross. the one in BHAM was the same day as the wedding--it was a BLAST-- we had lots of FOOD FUN and DANCIN!!!
....Honeymoon-- we went on out honeymoon to Panama City Beach and also Orlando, FL.... we love the beach soo much so that's where we decided to go and boy it was gorgeous down there--the water was perfect, nobody was there hardly...couldn't have asked for a better time to go--- then orlando--we went to Universal Studios, and on our last day we ended our honeymoon with a visit to the Orlando temple on our way home. it was a wonderful ending to a wonderful week :):)
