We met while both playing soccer at Lane Community College August of 2017. Our long time love for the sport and highly competitive natures made for a match when we went on our first date February of 2018, going Dutch on pizookies at BJ's.
On an unassuming Saturday afternoon, Karson came up with the idea for a dinner date in Florence. We enjoyed a quiet dinner watching two seals play in the water through a window seat at Moe's. On our way to the beach, Karson requested I put on some Tyler Childers and we sang the whole way to Driftwood Shores. We took in the ocean breeze and then Karson was down on one knee, before he could say anything Maddy responded with a expletive, followed up by "Of course!"
