We had our first date at Bre's favorite place, the Mississippi State Fair. We should have known it was fate from there..

Our first Christmas together! We decorated cookies with his brother, Baylor, Baylor's girlfriend, Gabbie, and his mom on Christmas Eve.

After church on Valentine's Day 2021, B gave me chocolates, a dozen roses, and a card asking me to be his girlfriend. <3

In May of 2021, we went on our first trip to both of our happy places, the beach! This was to celebrate my undergraduate graduation from Mississippi State University and my new job at Sally Kate Winters Children's Advocacy Center!

We got our first dog together, a mini Goldendoodle named Blair Waldwoof!

Our first family vacation together on Smith Lake with the Littles!

B's first time in The Junction with me! Hailstate!

Celebrating our first year of dating with a fair date!

If I include our first time in The Junction, I suppose I should include our first Ole Miss game.

I was so glad to be able to see Brannon promoted to Sergeant Little before he left the military the next year.

Our first Christmas with Blair-Bear completed with matching PJ's!

Blair's first birthday! B and I handmade a doggie cake for her and celebrated in Starkville with her best buds, Chug, Brother & Rowdy!

B survived his first McQuirter family vacation to Gatlinburg!

At the end of the summer of 2022, B helped me move back home from Starkville, ending our year-and-a-half long-distance relationship. It was bittersweet to leave my second home, but I was so excited to continue growing closer to Brannon!

Our third year of fair dates!

First family Halloween costumes- Scooby, Fred & Daphne!

Our third Christmas together!

Our second anniversary together <3

We continue my family's tradition of dying Easter eggs with them every year! This year, the theme was dinosaurs.

B wins Best Boyfriend of the Year for sticking it out through the rain and then driving all night back from Nashville- all to make my Eras Tours dreams come true!

I love this picture from Anna Claire & Adam's wedding, so I had to include it! Plus, I caught (or fought for) the bouquet at her wedding and was engaged within the year!

Our 2nd family vacation with my family! Also, I found out a year later that this was the trip B asked my dad for his blessing.

The fourth year of running around eating good food and playing games!

In our spooky Miss Americanna & The Heartbreak Prince era!

Our 4th Christmas together! Blair-Bear had to inspect B's beard for Christmas dinner crumbs!

We celebrated our 4th anniversary the weekend before at our first Mardi Gras together! We love traveling whenever we can!

We adopted a leopard gecko together! He came with the name Whiskey, but to keep the B's going, we named him Whiskey Bubbles. We mostly call him Bubbles!

Little did I know we were roughly 3 weeks away from being engaged!

The morning of the engagement! We enjoyed some lunch on the beach and went down to the sand.

Brannon took me out into the field of balloons, spilled his heart out to me, and then got down on one knee with the most beautiful ring I'd ever seen. He'd planned this out so much and took pride in picking out an incredible ring that looked like me, all on his own. It was such a magical night that I will always remember. Although he had planned to do it in a hot air balloon, I would have said yes if it was in our living room. I can't wait to be Mrs. Little!

Less than a week later, I graduated from the University of Southern Mississippi with my Master of Social Work!

We took our first set of engagement pictures with the super-talented Riley Reeves!

We adopted our second puppy, Ani!

Our second set of engagements at our happy place with the incredible Amy Garvin Beckley! We had to have some pictures taken where it all started in 2020! 4 years later, I still fall in love with you more every day. I can't wait for all the fair dates, road trips, and pets that are to come within our lifetime together!
