Matt & Renee Herbert
ABOUT RENEE
I was born in Reed City, Michigan on March 31, 1976. I graduated from Central Michigan University in December 2000. Last year I taught first grade at St. Mary's in Big Rapids, Michigan. I am now working on my master's in Administration at Ferris State University.
ABOUT MATT
Matt was born on August 30, 1975. He is currently going to Ferris State University and will graduate with his degree in computer programming in May 2003.
HOW WE MET
Matt and I dated in high school for a year and a half. We then separated for about 7 years and met again when I moved back home to student teach. We started hanging out together a lot with Angi Whitford and Dave McCauly in 2001. That is when we fell in love all over again.
WHEN WE GOT ENGAGED
September 17, 2002
HOW IT HAPPENED
I went to Matt's place and he had these riddles that I had to figure out. After I figured out a riddle, it would lead me to the next one until I found him waiting for me with a flower and the ring. We promised to love each other forever.
