It all started when Peter asked Alyssa to go to the zoo "just as friends," and a few months later, on the Fourth of July, he asked her to be his girlfriend. From there, they went on plenty of little adventures—weekend trips to Kansas City and random road trips around Kansas. One of their first dates was in KC, where they took a picture on a bridge. Over the years, they've shared some of their favorite memories, like skiing in Colorado and traveling to Europe. They’re currently renovating a house together, all while enjoying life with their two dogs, Moose and Butters. Five years later, they returned to that same bridge in KC, where Peter proposed, marking the perfect next step in their journey together.
