We're getting married!

2017 | We met at Northern Arizona University (NAU). Corin played hard to get and pushed Cole off for a couple of weeks. The first time we spent time outside of class together was Valentine's Day. He brought Corin a chocolate bar that was bought with dining dollars from the school snack store. In the fall, we adopted a puppy together and became dog parents. Over the years, our summers were spent long distance, traveling back and forth to see each other. 2019 | Corin moved back to Chicago for nursing school and Cole ventured to Spain for study abroad. Corin hopped on a plane and the two of us went off on a travel adventure around Spain and Germany. Distance made the heart grow fonder and we continued to grow closer. 2020 | Through the pandemic, we were able to take longer trips to see each other as school and work were online. 2021 | Cole graduated from NAU and Corin graduated from DePaul nursing. Cole had started a job in Phoenix and Corin followed shortly after. 2023 | On our anniversary trip to Lake Arrowhead, CA, our favorite place to go, Cole decided to pop the question in the middle of a historic snow storm. The best is yet to come.
