It started small.  The humble jar on her dresser with a Mickey Mouse sticker and a few nickels and dimes.  They would throw their change in, or any spare cash… and over five years as their hearts filled with love for each other, so did the jar… that savings slowly growing so they could take their trip.  A trip to DISNEYWORLD.

They had been talking about marriage for a while.  Each knew exactly what they wanted… but he told her it wasn’t time yet.  It wouldn’t happen on this trip.  Little did she know the day he had planned…

They rode rides, chatted with princesses and storm troopers, and enjoyed in all the magic to be found in the happiest place on earth.  Then, in front of Cinderella’s castle, with her parents permission and a crowd of cheering spectators, Thomas knelt and asked Dakota to be his wife.

Dakota & Thomas, Thank you for letting me document your love.  You two are kind, happy, and fun.  For the record, anyone who drives around with a car full of lightsabers is my kind of people.  I just know that you two will continue to make each other, and those around you, happy and blessed by your presence.  I’m excited to see where this world takes you… great things are in store!  Love and appreciation, ~M

I’ll end with this one. Thomas is the type of guy that everyone wants to befriend, kind with a great sense of humor… and a pretty big Star Wars fan too!  This one’s for you T!
