Brad and I met through our friends, Keaton and Tapenga. It is such a fun story; I always enjoy talking about it. There was a day in the middle of summer 2022 where it was a perfect day to go swimming at the lake. My best friend, Tapenga, asked if I wanted to go! I was super excited about it and she asked me if it was alright if her husband, Keaton, brought his buddy (Brad) with. I was completely fine with that! I decided I was going to pick out a really cute swimsuit (just in case I'd be interested)! We all met up at the lake and I looked up to see this amazing man get out of his car with his adorable dog, Piper. I instantly felt something for him. Me being me, I was totally hitting on him the whole time we were there and I just felt butterflies in my stomach. After a great day at the lake, I went home thinking about how much fun we all had and wondering if I was ever going to see him again. Next thing I knew, Tapenga asked me what I thought about Brad because he was asking about me! I told her that I couldn't stop thinking about him and that I found him really attractive. I knew in my heart he could be the one! Tapenga then tells me that Brad also felt the same way. He thought I was really kind and pretty and wanted to know if he could have my Snapchat. Obviously, I gave it to him... and here we are...3 years later getting married!!
