Blair & Haley
Our Love Story
Blair and I have went to the same school since we were in 7th and 8th grade at North Augusta Middle. I have always found him so handsome but just left it at that- like one of those small crushes but never goes past that. My sophmore year of high school I had the courage to give him my number-text for a few weeks and that was the end of that . It wasn’t until high school (2013) when he stopped me in the hall my 11th grade year, his senior year when I was skipping class to go to McDonald’s and we exchanged phone numbers. That entire summer we hung out and ended up dating right before my senior year began (8/11/2013). Within that year, we met each other's family, spent holidays together and enjoyed that beginning "puppy love phase." From then on our relationship grew. From growing close with each others family to taking small trips. From attending different colleges, graduating, and moving back home. We have experienced a lot of firsts from attending our first NBA game to taking our first flight. As time went on- Blair and I was ready to dip from our hometown- I was getting ready to graduate college and Blair had graduated and had been working with the same company for a couple of years. With that, in 2018 Blair transferred his job and I got into Grad school in Atlanta, GA. Crazy that was almost 6 years ago. By the end of 2018 we were in our first apartment living our best life. It was pretty fun, but definitely an adjustment with learning each other's living style. After a year of exploring the city, taking trips, and being care free- COVID hit. In April of 2020 we found out that I was pregnant with our son, Bryson who was born in January of 2021! Literally the love of our life and our #1 person. Not only has he brought the most joy in our lives, he has been an amazing blessing to our family and has brought togetherness and happiness. We are so blessed with a great village. In 2022, I graduated with my M.S in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and currently a Primary Therapist. In December of 2022 we finally got engaged and here we are. Have definitely seen a lot with each other and have overcome obstacles together. Crazy to even say I’m with the same person I was with in high school.
