Nicole and Jim have a match made in heaven.  By the third date Nicole knew she was falling in love and for good reason! Nicole wanted to express how comfortable she is around Jim and how grateful she is for all of his love and hard work for both their relationship and within his professional career.
 

 
“I met Jim on a blind date on November 8, 2013. We both admitted after the fact that we almost cancelled the date but luckily neither one of us did. I arrived at the restaurant first and when he walked in, it just felt right. We spent the entire night talking, laughing and we had so much fun.
 
We went out on our second date a few days later and by our third date, I knew I was falling in love with him. Six months after we met, we moved in together, then we bought a house together and 20 months after our first date, he proposed.
 
The day he proposed he set up a treasure hunt for me. He gave me clues with questions about our relationship and at the end as I was standing in the backyard of our new home, he dropped to one knee and asked me to marry him. It was beautiful, romantic and fun
 
We had an intimate destination wedding with just our immediate family and close friends. We decided to see each other before the wedding so we had the photographer set up our a shoot with just Jim and I. I remember being so nervous and shaking so hard I could barely smile for photos. But from the moment I saw his smile, I relaxed.
 
There is something about Jim and the way he loves me that settles all of my fears. He makes me feel so loved and cherished. He calms me.  
 
Describing Jim is hard … when it comes to work, he is smart, focused, confident, aggressive and hardworking. His boys and I tease him that he is ALWAYS working but it is because he loves his job and he wants to succeed.
 
When it comes to his boys, he is playful, loving and completely wrapped around their fingers. His boys are 9- and 6-years-old. He attends all their soccer games, even if we have 6 games in a day. He is a great dad and the boys adore him.
 
Jim loves music and always has music on around the house. For our wedding, he put together the playlist and it was perfect.  
 
When it comes to Jim and I, we would rather do everything together even if it makes more sense to divide up the work. We exercise together, walk the dogs together, do yard work together and run errands together. We both love being outdoors especially in the summer months, we love traveling, attending Bears and Hawks related sporting events and concerts. We also love our date nights whether we make a weekend of it in the city or just a simple dinner at home. Jim is a good cook so I am happy either way. Any night we have that it is just the two of us, we make special. We do not like spending even one night away from each other and I wouldn’t have it any other way.”
