Although we attended the same high school, our paths did not truly cross until the summer of 2020 while home from college. What started as time spent with friends quickly turned into nonstop conversations, even after returning to school. Before classes began, Katelyn visited Cole in Madison—our first official date—and on September 12, 2020, Cole asked Katelyn to be his girlfriend. The next few years included long distance, weekend visits, FaceTime calls, and plenty of adventures together. Summers were spent fishing, golfing, enjoying lake days, exploring state parks, and making memories with friends and family. After moving to new cities for school and chasing our dreams, we finally landed in Green Bay together in 2025. On June 14, 2025, Cole proposed to Katelyn at Cave Point County Park in Door County, surrounded by some of our favorite people. We are so grateful for everyone who has supported us and cannot wait to celebrate this next chapter with you!
