Cole was working at a tire shop, and Natalia had just gotten off of work at Buffalo Wild Wings. She brought her Pontiac Grand Prix into Discount Tire for a retorque on her wheels, and Cole ended up helping her. She had a sticker on her car for Hwy 421 (The Snake), a road that he frequented. Cole pointed out the sticker, asked Natalia about it, and when she said she likes to drive that road too, he asked her to add him on Facebook. A few days later, he reached out to her, asking if she'd like to go up there with him and his friends. All of his friends didn't end up going, and that ended up being their first date!

In May of 2022, Natalia and Cole found out that they were expecting! On January 28th, 2023, their son, Hayden Joseph Kelly was born, which started their little family.

Cole had planned a "Family Fun Day" right before Natalia went back to work from Maternity Leave. We took "a trip down memory lane," by going to our favorite breakfast spot (our 3rd date), then to The Snake (Hwy 421), where we had our first and second date. We drove all the way to Backbone Rock, hiked to the top, and that is where he popped the question!
