In the summer of 2021. We had known of each other through mutual friends and family, but never really connected — until one day when, funny enough, I actually tried to set him up with one of my friends! God clearly had other plans, because through that moment, the two of us began talking, and before long, we realized how much we enjoyed being around each other. Drew asked me to be his girlfriend on August 7. 💕 Our relationship continued to grow, even while being long-distance. In time, life brought us back to the same state — Texas. We kept talking, growing, and learning more about each other. By February 2024, we both began praying and talking about moving back to Arkansas for work. By God’s grace, doors opened, and we both found careers that brought us home — together. Being in the same state after years apart was such a wonderful change. On August 17, 2024, Drew proposed at Bella Vista Lake at Tanyard Creek, surrounded by the beauty of the water and sunset. It was the perfect setting for the next chapter of our story to begin. Now, we are so excited to continue this journey side by side — and we can’t wait to celebrate our wedding day with all of you!
