Here come the Troeschs

It’s crazy because when you know, you really DO know. They both grew up at the Big 8 softball fields and their parents even played on the same teams once or twice. Little did they know that’s where they’d really see each other for the first time. Faye made the first move. He made it easy, since he had a boot on his foot and crutches under his arms. (She has a soft spot for disabled people.) After a brief conversation, they connected on socials and have been together ever since. They became official on April 8th, 2022, the same day they exchanged “I love you’s.” It’s been very clear for the both of them since day one that they were in the endgame.

They had taken a week-long trip to Seattle to visit with John’s family. Faye had been quite anxious at this point to take the next step in their relationship since they both were thinking of settling down and growing their family. They’d been through more than most since the beginning of their relationship so it wasn’t out of the ordinary to be so close so quickly. John’s whole family planned a day trip to journey through the most beautiful scenes in Washington. They stopped at a hiking trail called “The Hall of Mosses.” Once at the peak of the trail, John got down on one knee. After the entire sailors dictionary came out of Faye’s mouth, he was able to ask for her hand in marriage, and of course she said yes. *A few months prior to the proposal, Faye’s grandmother came to John and told him that she had a ring for him whenever he was ready. Later, while out in Colorado visiting her family, John pulled her grandma aside, and told her it was time. She took the ring right off her finger and handed it to John, no questions asked. He had also asked her father for his permission to marry Faye around the same time, though it was more asking for permission to be Levi’s dad.
