They are in Love!!! Their love though, didn't start when they first met, Katie and Josh first came across each other's paths back in 2013 at Glen Eyrie Conference Center with the Navigators in different departments. They had even attended CSU-Pueblo at the same time but did not know as they were on separate career and life paths, and both were too busy to notice each other. Years passed and it wasn't until 2018 that their paths would cross again when Katie started at Great Wolf lodge doing what she knew and enjoyed best, Housekeeping. Josh was doing just the very same in guest services as a Night Auditor. Though acquainted with each other and would say hi every so often their love never blossomed until one day Josh noticed something very different about Katie. Something that said hmmmm… I would like to get to know this girl more. So, Josh decided to add her on Facebook and strike up a conversation. Katie helping Josh out one day while talking, asked him out on the first date; this the two enjoyed most dearly. About one month later, on June 30, 2021, Josh asked Katie to be his girlfriend in the most honorable way with a walk in the park and bringing flowers with him. Josh and Katie, with many joyous dates and fond memories made this past year, found they really loved and cared for each other a lot. They found that through God’s guidance and grace they were meant to be soulmates forever. Knowing this to be true Josh surprised Katie and proposed to her on June 16, 2022, in Palmer Park while on a mid-morning hike. Katie of course undoubtedly said YES with joyous tears. Having planned everything so strategically, he also surprised her with an engagement party with their closest family members and then later going to one of Katie's all-time favorite bands, the Glen Miller Orchestra at the Pikes Peak Center.

Looking forward to seeing you on our special day at the First United Methodist Church. Both the ceremony and reception will be located at the church with hors-d'oeuvres, cake, and beverages to follow at the reception.
