She said yes!

The happy couple met the summer of 2015 (August) when Tyler surprised his parents on a trip home from Alabama. Tyler went over to Zoe's mom's house with his parents and INSTANTLY was smitten with her. Too bad for him though--Zozo was still underage and Momma Melissa said "No way Jose" to that 3.5 year age gap. Fast forward to summer of 2016 (June 26th to be exact)-- Zoe and Tyler's next encounter was at her high school graduation party, and coincidentally Tyler's birthday. A quick hug and some small talk and that was it for 2016. A YEAR later, in the summer of 2017 (June 19th) the two finally made it happen. (Meeting in happenstance three summers in a row).... UHHH FINALLY YOU TWO!! This was the summer of new beginnings and savings graces--Oh and the birth of handsome Mr. Oakley!! During 2019, Tyler and Zoe got a house together in May, welcomed miss Olivia Jane to the world in June, and became engaged in July! Tyler proposed at a concert of one of Zoe's favorite bands, The Dirty Heads. Tyler was a nervous wreck! But of course, she said yes, and here we are now!
