We first met freshman year of college at Lamar University just beginning to find our way. We talked briefly before life pulled us in different directions... (okay, I ghosted him). But God had other plans. A year later, we reconnected and within just two weeks, I knew he was the one. We first started hanging out October 1st, where sparks flew in the most unexpected way. Just days later, on October 13th, Tyler took me on our first date which was the beginning of something truly magical. On December 30th, he officially asked me to be his girlfriend, sealing a chapter that felt straight out of a storybook. We shared our first church service together on November 13th, 2022, at Encounter Church. From that moment on, we’ve been intentional about bettering ourselves not just for each other, but for God. Building our relationship through the lens of biblical love has shaped our journey. We’ve committed to doing this the right way through honoring the commands and wisdom God has given us, growing in faith, and seeking Him first in everything we do. On April 9th, 2023, we exchanged our first “I love you.” Every step since has been filled with growth, laughter, and grace and we can’t wait to celebrate the next chapter with you.
