Our story

We met online in 2022, and after just one day of talking, we decided to meet in person. From our first date at a little Mexican restaurant, the connection was instant. Life wasn’t simple, Tracy was preparing for deployment while raising his daughter but our love continued to grow. Our second date took us to the farmers market and hiking at Ledges State Park, and it quickly became clear we had something worth holding on to. Even through long distance during Tracy’s deployment, our bond only deepened. When he returned home, we moved in together, bought our first home, and on July 4, 2024, he proposed in our backyard surrounded by family, friends, and fireworks. Since then, life has been full of joy, from special family moments with his daughter to welcoming our baby boy. Our journey hasn’t been traditional, but it has been filled with love, and we can’t wait to celebrate this next chapter with all of you.
