i did not include this story on our blog when i posted picture from my friend morgan's wedding, but i thought i would briefly discuss how morgan and i met. we lived in the same dorm our freshman year, but this dorm was 14 floors and housed about 900 girls so i could actually say that about a lot of people. more specifically, i quickly discovered that she and i also went to the same church, about a block away from our dorm. i noticed that i would see her some in the dorm, but on sundays, we would both leave at the same time, i would see her at church, and then i would see her again that afternoon when we got back from church. sometimes we would even be in the elevator at the same time and never speak to each other. we both finally decided to say hello and introduce ourselves since it was clear we at least had the church thing in common. turns out, we had a lot more in common and developed a great friendship! we continued going to the same church and eventually were roommates for two years. we had some ups and downs (like most friendships do), relationships, break-ups, new friends come along, and more. i am thankful for her friendship, and i was so honored to stand alongside as she married a man i know will take wonderful care of her and love her.
