How We Met

Summer 2015

Morgan was in the gym, per usual. Karl was walking to the locker room for practice and saw Morgan through the gym windows. The door was propped open and he went inside to say hi. Morgan and Karl frequently crossed paths around campus and knew of each other--it's a small athlete world at UGA. They talked, exchanged numbers, and Karl agreed to cook dinner. Their friendship grew and turned into what will soon be marriage!

The Proposal

Very rarely do we find free time to do things other than practice/work, sleep, and study; but when we do, we love to go hiking. We've been hiking all over North Georgia and we are excited to continue adventuring together for the rest of our lives. It was a typical, late September Saturday. Karl had morning practice and then planned for us to go hiking after he finished treatment. We would go to Tallulah Gorge, the first place we'd ever hiked together. I remember checking his fitbit a few minutes into our hike to see that his heart-rate was in the 100s. Quite unusual for an Olympic athlete! I poked fun and we continued down the Gorge and up the other side. Once we got to the top, we enjoyed the view and then posed for a photo-op. A bunch of blue balloons, carrying a poster with the message "Will you marry me?", floated up behind us and Karl was down on one knee. I said "Yes!" and we celebrated with our closest friends who came out from hiding as he popped the question.
