Our lives together so far

Daniel and Shelly met in the Fall of 2000 at Wichita State University. Daniel was working with a mutual friend, Angie, in the graphic design department of the Rhatigan Student Center. Although they were both dating other people, they could appreciate a similar sense of humor and intelligence.  

After college they went their separate ways, keeping in touch via Facebook and challenging each other on Words with Friends. Both are very competitive so it was annoying for Shelly to not win most of the time. In the fall of 2000 they reconnected through Words with Friends, sharing funny jokes and learning more about each other. As they learned more, they discovered they had a lot in common and the friendship started to grow into more. At this time the two were separated, with Shelly living in Springfield, MO and Daniel still residing in Wichita. Shelly came to visit Daniel and the sparks flew. The next two and a half years saw Daniel putting a LOT of miles on his car as he came to know Hwy 400 very well. With the relationship blooming, Shelly and Daniel decided it was time for the next step and she moved back to Wichita in April of 2016.

They've spent the last 3 years getting to know each other even better, expanding old friendships, building new ones and playing ALL the games.
