We're getting married!

We met for the first time several years before we started dating at Andrew's parents home during a "Sunday Fun Day". Andrew's mother, Teresa, and I worked together for a few years in the hospital. Not long after the party, Teresa texted me to see if it was ok to give Andrew my number. Those that know Andrew, can assume what happened next...he was too shy to text me. Years later, we matched on Bumble and went on our first date on July 3, 2019 at Vintage in Rockford.

Throughout the years of dating, Andrew has worked at Lowe's Distribution and I worked as a Hospice Nurse. Early 2020, I moved to Andrew's home in Winnebago. Together, we have been able to enjoy sunny days on the boat, plenty of Bud Lights, and hanging out with our two cats, Frank and Alice.

In February of 2021, we visited Arizona. We stayed two nights at the Grand Canyon. On February 28, 2021 we hiked 2 miles down into the Grand Canyon on the Bright Angel Trail. We stopped at a cliff and Andrew asked a stranger to take a picture of us. While standing on the edge of a cliff, Andrew got on one knee and asked me to marry him!
