Payne's.

This is us! 

Wes and I started dating April 18th 2008! We were in High School, it was my Junior year and his Senior year. My sister's friend, Mike, came over one day to work out with my dad and play Xbox. I remember coming home and seeing this guy I had never seen before. Just sitting there like he knew us for years. 

Mike introduced me to Wesley, after I continued to my room. I came down stairs about an hour later and only Mike was in the house. I asked where his friend went and he said to his girlfriends house. Changing the subject, Mike asked me if I would like a job where he worked. I got an interview and was hired. 

On my first day I walk in and there is Wes. After a couple month I hated working with Wes. To the point that I actually asked my manager to take me off the schedule with him. Well of course there were days that I wasn't so lucky because they needed the whole staff. 

Once again a few months went by and Wes and his girlfriend broke up while he was at work. I remember asking him if he was okay and his remark was "yes, I am free now." I was surprised but I figured with five guys in the room and one girl it might just be a defense. Once we got alone I asked him again. He said "I now am free to find someone better." He did this adorable face towards me, we started hanging out after work and got so close. I still hated working with him though. 

Our first date was going to see "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" and had dinner. A couple days later he asked me to be his girlfriend. As time went on we learned that we both love Date Nights, Ice Tea, Traveling, Trying New Food, Spending Days in PJ's Watching TV, Quading, Fishing, Wrestling, Pranks, Playing Skip-Bo and Phase Ten and spending as much time as we can together!

This is Harlee, she is a Boxer/Leonberger mix. 

She was born October 20th 2013 and we adopted her December 5th. 

She is my world. She already learned to sit and stay and we're working on the potty training. She is such a character, when I first got her I took her a bath and used the hair dryer to dry her off. Well as normal puppies do they play with the air or are just scared of it. Now myself, I use the hair dryer to get warm and now she takes the heat from me. She was in the middle of playing with her toy and once I turned on the hair dryer she ran over, sat right in front of it then fell asleep! When she first did it I told my husband and he didn't believe me. I showed him while she was laying next to him, she woke up and once again, came over and fell asleep in front of the hair dryer! Wes's response was "Seriously, she is already taking after you!"
