About Kendall
Kendall on Black Friday 2010
Kendall
was born and raised in Grand Prairie, TX. She has an older sister,
Jacquelyn, who is also in the process of wedding planning! After
graduating high school, she went on to pursue degrees in History
and Mass Communications at Stephen F Austin State University and TCU.
Now-a-days she spends her days as a "house fiance" and lives in Irving, TX with Albert, their roommate Kevin, and
their 1-yr old coonhound mix pup Rygel. When
not trying to keep up with Rygel or keep track of the boys, Kendall
enjoys cooking/baking, shopping, and watching sports. An avid fan of
all things Dallas sports, Kendall spends her fall watching the Cowboys,
summers watching the Rangers, and every time in between keeping up to
date with the Stars & Mavericks! Besides
sports, Kendall loves music. Be it the deep country of her youth,
bubblegum pop of her pre-teens, or more "grown up" music of now, when
she is down, music is her pick-me-up. Regardless of being moderately
shy, Kendall still loves singing her heart out in the car, shower, or
anywhere people aren't watching.
About Albert
Albert at South Padre Island
Albert
is the youngest of three children behind older sisters Alisha and Amber
- who enjoyed
tormenting his youth. Born in Borger, TX, Albert was raised in
Spearman, TX where he had big aspirations of
becoming a snow cone truck driver. Before his 8th grade year, Albert
and
the family moved to Brookline, VT where his aspirations of delivering
snow cones seemed a bit far fetched in the snowy area. Instead, Albert
began falling in love with video games. It was a match made in heaven
as Albert has pursued programming and gaming ever since. After leaving
home, Albert attended Daniel Webster in Nashua, NH. While
DWC was typically for students looking for degrees in aviation, Albert
stuck with programming. While in college, he and roommate Kevin (aka
Bucket) and several friends began the
adventures of the Donut Limo - a Grand Marquis Colony Park edition
station wagon that was used to wreak havoc on the area. From car
sledding, burnouts, and rooftop trips through local fast food
drive-thrus, the boys become local heroes and the campus police's worst
nightmare. Now-a-days, Albert still enjoys his beloved video games,
being disappointed year after year by his Cowboys, laying out in the sun
to read, and rock music. His car, lovingly named Retta after her
model, rivals his love for Kendall, and he refuses to replace her until
her last gasp of gasoline. He also has become the perfect "daddy" to
Rygel and has earned the privilege of being the only one the puppy will
#2 for! :)
Our Story Starts...
When Kendall moved home from Portland, Oregon, in 2007, she joined several social networking and dating groups in Dallas. Albert messaged Kendall online and struck up a conversation. After a few messages back and forth, they agreed to meet up at a sponsored event in Lewisville. Unfortunately for both, it was a missed connection as they sky opened up and let loose one heck of a flood - all while Albert was riding in a convertible! After the disappointment by both, Kendall agreed to cook dinner for Albert at his home on July 28, 2007... It was the start of something awesome...
