We met in elementary school. Sarah had a huge crush on Carson in 5th grade, but he still thought girls had cooties. Many years later, our sophomore year of high school, we began to hang out. Finally, when Carson was 17 and Sarah was 16, they became boyfriend and girlfriend officially! Also on April 19, 2019, Carson asked Sarah to prom. Carson and Sarah grew in their love finishing out high school. With college being around the corner, we knew our relationship was going to grow simultaneously as we were both growing individually. We both ended up at Dordt University, all the way in Sioux Center, Iowa. We learned how to focus on school, lots of new friends, while learning how to further our relationship. Our relationship grew exponentially while at Dordt, and we both graduated in May of 2024. As we both moved back home to Kalamazoo, our relationship had to continue to grow as we transitioned into a different phase of life. Now, Carson is working full time at Edgewood Dairy, and Sarah is an ER nurse at Bronson in Kalamazoo. We are absolutely thrilled to be in this engaged stage of life. We are praying and preparing for the next chapter as we become husband and wife!
