Early summer 2016, as they browsed the finest that Tinder had to offer, Ryan and Veronica both swiped right. It took a year of texting, Snapchatting, and FaceTiming to finally meet in person. Boy are they glad they did. They immediately fell for each other and began getting together as often as possible, taking turns making the 40 minute drive between Harborcreek PA and Bemus Point NY. Ryan and little Miss Leeha (then 3 years old) bonded instantly and loved playing together whenever possible. At the end of summer Ryan was due to go back for his Senior year of college in Cortland NY, and the long distance part of the relationship began. Veronica traveled out for a few long weekends, Ryan came home for as long as possible on school holidays, and the two stayed in constant contact through the wonder of FaceTime. The following spring, Veronica and Leeha made the last journey out to Cortland for Ryan’s graduation and helped him move back home. That fall, the family of 3 bought and renovated their first home, with much help from Miss Leeha, and got engaged just a month later. The proposal took place in scenic Kinzua PA, on a snowy November Evening, at the end of the Kinzua Viaduct Sky Walk. Shortly after getting engaged, the family of 3 found out they would soon be a family of 4! The following July Miss Cora was born! Now this family of 4 is eagerly awaiting October 18, 2025 and the official celebration of future Mr. and Mrs. Ryan and Veronica Braund!
