We're getting married!

Our story began the Spring of 2010. Tasha was a freshman and Derek was a sophomore at Northfield High School. A mutual friend introduced the two of them. The two hit it off and spent nearly everyday of that summer together. 7 years later and the rest is history.

The two of them were staying with Tasha’s family in Georgia in February of 2017 for her upcoming jaw surgery. The day before the procedure, Derek wanted to help Tasha escape the anxiety of waiting and brought her to Sweetwater State Park for a day of romantic walks and beautiful scenery. While standing by the rocky riverbank, Derek got down on one knee and asked Tasha to marry him!
