We first met through a mutual friend in high school. We began spending a lot of our time together before we started dating in April of 2011. We were almost inseparable the next year and half before Logan graduated high school and went off to college in Wahpeton, ND. He finished his degree in 2 years and moved back to Pierre, SD to work in 2014. Then it was my turn to go off to school. I graduated high school in 2014 and headed to Grand Forks, ND and spent the majority of the next 6 years there completing my degrees.

Even with most of our relationship being spent more than five hours away from each other, we can't and couldn't imagine our lives without the other. The day after Christmas (my favorite time of year) in 2016, Logan and I went with my sister, Daniall, to take what I thought were "family pictures." In the middle of taking pictures, Logan got down on a knee and popped the question with an "I Owe You" puppy stuffed animal with a ring attached to its collar. I said yes, of course! Then it came time to pick out the date.... Since I love snow, I wanted a winter wedding with the beauty and serenity of a landscape with a fresh, fluffy blanket of snow (I know. I know.. most people hate winter... Sorry!). I was also starting physical therapy school in the fall of 2017 which caused problems for scheduling a winter wedding....Leading us to postpone the wedding to three years later... February 22, 2020... to when I would be on clinical and able to take some time off.
