Beginning in October of 2015 Andrea noticed Patrick at the homecoming school dance. The following week she asked her friend if she knew anything about him or had his contact info. Once adding him on social media, Patrick reached out. Ever since they have been inseparable! On December 16th of 2015, before going to a high school basketball game, Patrick asked Andrea to be his girlfriend at the Port Williams beach. Andrea and Patrick continued to grow together through high school graduation, graduating together at Peninsula college with their AA degrees, graduating together at Eastern Washington University with their bachelors, and now moving to Vancouver, WA to begin their careers. Andrea and Patrick have pushed each other to pursue their dreams of becoming an elementary teacher and a personal trainer. Together they have dove into the word of God and grew to be even stronger believers in Christ. On June 15th, 2021 Patrick finally got down on one knee, on a beautifully decorated dock on lake Sutherland, to ask Andrea for her hand in marriage.
