We're getting MARRIED!

We met each other in 2nd grade, yes, 2nd grade! Let us set the scene: it's 2011, snow on the ground, West Carroll Thunder primary school, and Valentine's Day. Kelden invites Aleigha over to his house; we like the hustle, but no way is a mom going to let her daughter go to a boy's house.... Shortly after, Aleigha leaves Savanna, IL, and moves to a new school. The two keep in touch on social media, but they are both on their own path. Now, fast forward to the Summer of 2021. Aleigha started working at Casey's, and Kelden is working at Elkay for the summer before Line School. Kelden liked Casey's before work, but only if Aleigha was working. If she wasn't, it was McDonald's. Kelden quickly learned what car was Aleigha's, and the daily small talk started to happen. The two like to call it God's invisible string, which brings them back together at the perfect time. The small talk turned into dates, dates turned into laughs, and on September 14th, 2021, Kelden asked Aleigha to be his girlfriend.....again, but at a much more mature age. Kelden finally got his Valentine's Day girl, and they haven't been separated since.
