Can you believe we have known each other our whole lives? We went to preschool, most of elementary, and high school together. I was even a cheerleader all 4 years that Collin played football in high school. It wasn't until after we graduated and started going to the same college that we reconnected and started really getting to know each other. Our first date was at the Humboldt County Fair in the summer of 2018. We now live in the Bay Area and have two adorable pups!

On December 4th, 2020, Collin insisted that we take our sweet pup Cooper on a trip to Union Square in San Francisco to see the giant Christmas tree. He knew I wouldn't say no because I love Christmas! Once in front of the Christmas tree to take pictures, Collin dressed Cooper in a bandana that read "Will you marry my dad?" and caught me by complete surprise! Of course I said, "yes!"
