2013 - We met our freshman year of high school when Maddie's volleyball coach/our teacher sat us next to each other in a class. We became good friends. This is where we have different sides to the story because Maddie had admitted to her girlfriends she had a crush on Parker. Summer approached and we stayed friends. 2015 - Jumping ahead a couple years into our friendship, Parker began to realize he too had a crush. So, we started dating during the summer on the 4th of July. Also note, that we didn't tell our closest of friends for several weeks and they were shocked to find out when we went back to school. 2016 & 2017 - At this point, we had been dating for two years. We went to two proms together, countless basketball/volleyball games, and lots of ice cream dates through high school. We then graduated together and realized we wanted to make long distance work during college. Parker was heading to Wabash College and Maddie was headed to Ball State. There would be many weekend trips to see each other. 2018 & 2019 - Throughout both of our college experiences we made many great friends together. We are lucky enough to have many of them celebrating with us on our wedding day! Maddie cheered Parker on at countless Wabash basketball games. Parker supported Maddie as she moved home to finish up school and work at the pool store. If you know ya know, best job ever! 2020 - Well we all know what happened this year. We were lucky enough to quarantine together. Originally, we thought we would get to do one less week of long distance when they extended our spring beak. But everything shut down and we spent so much quality time together during lockdown. We spent many weekends at the lake surfing, learning new cocktail recipes, and playing ALL the double deck euchre. 2021 - Luckily life went back to normal and many special moments for us happened this year. Within this year we got ENGAGED! We both graduated from college. Maddie took a big girl job and Parker got into law school. Our lives took us to Indianapolis. We moved into our first apartment together. Okay that is enough for one year! 2022 - We like to say we outgrew our apartment in downtown Indy but really it was just a good excuse to get our dog, Fynnegan. We love our Baby Fynn dearly. We explored the fun and sometimes frustrating trials of having a puppy while we moved to Carmel. Finally, we began to plan our wedding! 2023 - Which brings us to... now! Eight years later and we have experienced so much together. We wanted to share just a few snippets of our journey. We are so excited for our wedding and to celebrate with everyone. 2024 - Tying the knot! See everyone on the dance floor.
