We met in December of 2016 while working at The Buckle in the St. Joe Mall. From the very beginning, the connection was instant. What started as shifts together quickly turned into something so much more. Since the day we met, we've been inseparable — growing, laughing, and building a life full of love together. Over the years, we’ve grown side by side, creating a beautiful life that now includes three fur babies and one very real, very adorable little girl.

We got engaged on March 20, 2021, and it was truly one of the most special nights of our lives. Lance and I had a lovely dinner together in Kansas City at a lovely restaurant. After dinner, we took a walk through a beautiful trail and park area nearby. As we made our way to a dock overlooking the water, I paused to take in the view—when I turned around, there was Lance down on one knee, asking me to be his wife. Of course, I said yes! It was a perfect, love-filled night—one we’ll never forget. What we really didn’t expect was that just a few weeks later, Hannah would have a positive pregnancy test… and we’d be starting the wild, wonderful journey of parenthood together, too.
