How We Met

Second Times The Charm

💕 Our Story We met in March of 2020 — right as the world was shutting down. While most people were learning to bake bread or bingeing Netflix alone, we were falling for each other over movie nights in my kitchen, huddled around a laptop. After a few months, Cory asked me to meet his son, Oakley. I knew how big of a step that was, and at the time, I wasn’t ready for that level of commitment. We went our separate ways — but Cory never really gave up. For ten months, he tried to win me back… texting, calling, even leaving flowers on my doorstep. Eventually, I gave in — and thank goodness I did. We reconnected in March of 2021, and it felt different this time. I fell for him almost instantly, and from then on, we were inseparable. By April 7th, 2021, we made it official. I met Oakley soon after, and the three of us quickly became a little family. That summer and fall were filled with laughter, love, and a lot of back-and-forth between houses — until we decided to move in together in December 2021. Just a month later, we found out we were expecting! Walker joined our world on September 17th, 2022, making our hearts (and home) even fuller. We got engaged on December 20th, 2024, and on October 10th, 2025 — surrounded by our two boys — we said “I do.” It was simple, heartfelt, and exactly what we wanted.
