She never pictured herself moving to the south. But one class and one man changed that.
It was a snowy afternoon at North Dakota State university and the Mississippi football transfer was not used to the weather. The Minnesota girl offered anyone in their class a ride home, and of course he took her up on the offer. After a great conversation home, the two discovered that they lived in the same building and immediately began hanging out. Annika and Tom became great friends, which turned into more and eventually Tom was on one knee proposing to his best friend.
Their wedding day proved to me just how good of friends they are, not only to each other, but to everyone who comes into contact with them. It was beautiful and emotional, and I was overly blessed to be a part of it.
And now this Minnesota girl has become a Southern girl, all because of a ride home.
Gorgeous, Karen!
