Every time someone asks us how we met, we just look at each other and smirk a little bit because honestly we don’t really know. So we officially met when youth group was at my house, he was 17 & I was 15, only 2 weeks away from turning 16. We went to the same youth group for almost a year and then he left and did quite a bit of traveling so we didn't see each other much. We still talked here and there, ya know like good “friends” do. And then I also left the youth group a little over a year later. And so we got in touch a little more again. So over the years our contact was very off and on. Fast forward a few years, I ran into him at a coffee shop some random Sunday morning and well, let’s just say the butterflies came back. Of course neither of us would admit it at the time but… he asked me out only 4 months later! Which I was so stunned that I replied, “ You mean like a date? Just you and me?” So yeah that was cool and awkward😂 I basically immediately said I’d be honored, obviously. We had our first date on August 6th of 2022 and got engaged on February 11th of 2024. We are so thankful for all the love and support we had over the years from family and loyal friends. We love and appreciate each one of you:) Our journey has been more beautiful than we would ever have dared to dream. Jesus has been so good to us and we feel so grateful for the way that He has proven himself faithful over & over again in our personal lives and in our relationship.
