Our love story began when we first started dating as 12-year-old middle schoolers on 12/13/2012. Tyler’s original plan was to ask Makayla to be his girlfriend on 12/12/12, but he was too nervous to ask when the time came. While our middle school relationship only lasted about 3/4 weeks because we were very young, we remained close friends all throughout our high school and college years and the feelings never faded away. We officially reconnected our relationship on 1/15/2022 and have been inseparable ever since! We bought our first home together in October of 2023 and got engaged on April 27th, 2025 ❤️
