We met at the Menards store we both worked at. Jake moved to Eau Claire to take on a promotion as an Assistant Front End Manager; he actually was my Manager for a while! We quickly became good friends and enjoyed spending time with our group. After a few years, I expressed my feelings to a couple close friends about Jake; being the good friends they are, they convinced me to tell him how i felt regardless of the "what ifs." Fast forward 2 years later; Jake has lead us to many memorable adventures. On October 13, 2019, Kaellie (the Matron of Honor) was taking our "family" pictures for our christmas card this year. Without any idea, Jake had a creative plan for a surprise proposal which was all caught on camera! I was overcome with excitement and instantly said yes to spending the rest of my life with my Best Friend. We are extremely excited to share our big day with you and can't thank you enough for your love and support. Cheers to FINALLY becoming a Fatura!
