We met in sixth grade in youth group at Harvest Bible Church. Though we hardly interacted, we always thought the other was cute! We continued to go to the same youth group all through high school, we graduated, and then rarely saw each other. In March of 2023, at EOS Fitness, Anna happened to see Bryan. After much contemplation and encouragement from her friend over text, she decided to approach him. Though the conversation was brief, both thought that maybe something could be there. A month later we saw each other again. Our small group leaders from youth group caught wind of these run ins and they then plotted and schemed to get us together. Adrie Olson (Anna's small group leader) famously texted Bryan Anna's number saying, "Make it happen!" And he made it happen! We went on our first date in June of 2023, and the rest is history. We got engaged on September 13, 2024, and are SO excited to get married and celebrate this special day with you all! God has been so faithful and good in bringing us together!
