We always say God’s timing is perfect and our story is a reminder of just how true that is. We first crossed paths at a little gas station called Kahoots, where Makayla was working. Ian walked in and noticed Makayla right away. God had a plan for that chance encounter. Through a mutual friend we got connected. We started talking, and before long, we made plans to hang out for the first time on a boat at Grand Lake. Also the coldest night of our lives. That day changed everything. We discovered our shared love for hiking, video games, movies, and more importantly, we realized how natural and peaceful it felt just being together. We talked about life, faith, and everything in between, and something in both of our hearts knew this was the start of something real. From the lake to where we are now, it’s been a journey full of love, laughter, and lots of answered prayers. We’ve grown together, always keeping God at the center of our relationship, trusting Him to lead the way. Now, we can’t wait to start our next adventure as husband and wife.
