Meet Rebecca+Stephen

And last, but not least, Rebecca and Stephen's story (stay tuned at the end of the post for info on voting)!


1: How did you two meet one another?

I had a friend in school at the TN School of Technology in Knoxville.  One night in August 2008, I went to see a race at the Tazewell Speedway.  There, we meet up with my friend’s buddies from Union County.  One of them was a beautiful young lady named Rebecca Miller.  One smile from her and I was smitten.  This was the beginning of a “long distance” relationship between Union County and Blount County that continues to this day.

2: What is your favorite thing about one another?

Stephen’s favorite thing about Rebecca is her smile and her easy nature.  Rebecca says her favorite thing about Stephen is his personality.  He is so sweet and polite.

3: What is your most memorable moment with one another?

We attended the wedding of Stephen’s cousin in September 2009.  The wedding was our first formal affair with his family that we had attended together.  We dressed in our very best and had the greatest time dancing the night away.  Stephen caught the garter when the groom tossed it and waved it at Rebecca.

4: What is your ideal date?

We enjoy outdoor activities.  An ideal date would be getting together to see a race and then grabbing a quick bite to eat.  It is going for a long walk in the woods and talking about the future.  The ideal date is any chance to get to spend time together.

5: How did the proposal take place?

As our relationship has developed so has our love for one another continued to grow. What started with the simple insertion into a conversation such as “if we get married ...” or “when we get married …” is now “My mom saw this article in the newspaper for a wedding contest if we get married on 10-10-10”. And she said, “Yes”.

6: Favorite movie for each of you and why?

A movie series that we both consider our favorite is Twilight.  Rebecca enjoys reading the books in the series and I like to wait for the movies. We like how the movies are different then the usual thriller.  They combine suspense, romance and friendship in a compelling movie.

7: Where was your 1st kiss?

After our second date, again a race at the Tazewell Speedway, we shared our first kiss on Rebecca’s front porch when I was dropping her off at home.  Our life together had begun.

8: Favorite TV show to watch together and why?

Since we are usually at Rebecca’s house watching her TV, we like to watch TLC’s Trauma, Life in the ER.  Rebecca is going to attend school to be a RN and she loves to watch this show.  I love to watch what she likes to watch.

9: Favorite flavor of ice cream for each of you?

Stephen’s favorite flavor of ice cream is Cookies & Crème.  Rebecca loves to eat Snicker’s Ice Cream.

10: Where do you see yourselves in 10 years?

I see myself in 10 years married to Rebecca and working as a Diesel Mechanic for a large trucking company.  Rebecca sees herself married to me and working as a Registered Nurse at a local hospital.  We hope to have three children, two dogs and one cat.  We see ourselves owning our own property where we can have a home and plenty of space for horses.

Thanks for sharing Rebecca and Stephen!
