Yay for high school sweethearts! Bridget and Cooper met junior year of high school after being set up to go to prom together by some friends. They continued to go on dates and officially became a couple on June 9th, 2021. After high school, Bridget attended Boise State University while Cooper attended University of Idaho, moving their relationship into long distance. They were happy to see long distance come to an end once Bridget transferred to the University of Idaho after the first year. Bridget now graduates in spring 2025 with her BS in Elementary Education and Cooper graduates in spring 2026 with his BS in Civil Engineering. They plan on doing some traveling together when they are both out of college and continuing to live in the Idaho area.
Cooper and Bridget were on a small trip together in Yellowstone for their 3 year anniversary. The trip was full of adventures such as horseback riding, hiking, and rodeos. On June 14th 2024, while on a breathtaking hike up to Henry's lake in Island park, Cooper got down on one knee and asked Bridget to marry him. She of course said yes!
