We met in the fall of 2015 at a St. Scholastica event. Austin came to the event with his friends Max and Shauna while Kaylee came with her friends (thanks friends!). Soon after we went on our first date down in Canal Park and had many more to follow that! While Kaylee was going to nursing school, Austin continued his work for the railroad. In May 2017 Kaylee started her job in Duluth and moved in with Austin. The following year, we got a puppy, Boone. He is our ball of energy and cuddle buddy. On October 12th, 2020 Austin finally got down on one knee at an observation tower that overlooks the Mackinac Bridge in Michigan. Kaylee of course said yes after many years of patiently waiting for this day. In those five years we created so many wonderful memories and continued to build our relationship. We are so excited to get married and spend the rest of our lives as husband and wife!
