Collin and Alexus messaged each other on and off for several years. In 2014, Collin and Alexus had been at a high school football game. Alexus noticed Collin kept looking at her. On her way home, she had realized who it was and sent a messaged to him on facebook. The message stated "You stared at me, but couldn't say hi?" Collin unsure what to say wrote back. It wasn't until November 16th of 2014 when Alexus and Collin started dating. Their first date was to the Rotary Lights. The rest was history until June 20th, 2019 when Collin proposed at the gazebo over Lake Marinuka in Galesville. Of course Alexus said yes!
