Some love stories begin with a grand, cinematic moment. Ours? It started with matching on a dating app in the middle of a global shutdown—proof that even in the most unexpected times, the best things can find you. With the world on pause, we got to know each other in a way that felt both old-fashioned and entirely modern—long FaceTime dates, endless laughter, and a connection that somehow made the distance between us feel smaller. When we finally met in person, it was simple but perfect: a walk followed by Amy’s Ice Cream. No over-the-top gestures, just two people who already knew—this was something special. And we were right. Since then, we’ve built a life full of adventure, late-night Amy’s runs, and the occasional surrender to the tiny but mighty force that is Stormi, our long-haired, sassy chihuahua. Together, we’ve explored Italy, hiked through Arizona, soaked up the sunshine in Mexico, and spent countless weekends with sandy toes and salty air in Port Aransas—our favorite little escape. But some of our best moments happen right at home—Big Bang Theory marathons, movie nights, inside jokes, and making each other laugh over the smallest things. Then, one day, he built something even bigger than our love for ice cream. Literally. With his own two hands, he constructed a deck and pergola—the perfect place to get down on one knee, surrounded by our family and friends. It turns out, love isn’t just about finding the right person. It’s about building something together, piece by piece. So here we are, ready for the next chapter—one that starts with "I do" and continues with a lifetime of Amy’s dates, Stormi’s sass, beach weekends, and adventures we can’t wait to have. Because when you find someone who balances you perfectly, life is a little sweeter.
