We both started working at Mustang Island Family Camp in the summer of 2023, where we met on May 24th and quickly became close friends. Over the next three months, we spent our days talking, laughing, and sharing what would become one of the most memorable summers of our lives. When the season ended and we returned to school, it became clear that we wanted to be more than friends. We spent the next nine months navigating long distance—filled with plenty of highs, a few challenges, and a lot of growth together. Now, that summer has led us here, as we begin the next chapter of our story on the road to marriage.
