We first met back in 2013, it was our freshman year of high school. We met in marching band, towards the end of the season. We were coming back from our state trip in Ft. Collins. We were band geeks together. Dylan played the trumpet and Erica played the clarinet and trumpet.
Erica and Dylan have been together ever since August 18th, of 2015. Beginning of junior year of high school, they are the classic high school sweethearts.
Dylan started college at Colorado School of Mines in Golden CO in August of 2017 leaving Erica in Grand Junction so she could do her schooling. Erica and Dylan were a long distance couple for 11 months, and people say long distance isn't possible... After 11 months, Erica moved to Denver to start her career.
Erica tried surprising Dylan with a surprise ski trip because Erica loved skiing and Dylan has never gone down hill skiing before. Erica, thinking that she was clever decided a surprise ski trip would have been a great Christmas present. However, Dylan already knew about this trip somehow and popped the question to Erica right before lunch. Dylan had Erica's parents and sister there, as well as his parents and brother to all witness this and take pictures to make it as special as could be. Somehow, Erica did not see this coming and it all surprised her.
