Our story started in 2020 when Chad and I decided to go back to school to get our Masters in Architecture at the University of Utah. I was excited to meet new friends and of course follow my policy of sitting next to the cutest boy in class on the first day. Then Covid hit, classes would all be held online and I was BUMMED! So the first day of school rolls around, and I'm sitting there in my apartment feeling super awkward staring at a screen. Then I find him, the cutest boy in class. It's Chad!! Of course I turn my camera off, and call both of my roommates in to my room to point at this boy on my screen that is the most handsome boy I've ever seen in my life and joke that he's going to be my husband someday. Joke's on me. I make up some excuse about "not knowing the homework" and message him on zoom. We start chatting about why we're in Utah and what we like to do and find that we have a lot in common, so he invites me to mountain bike (on his birthday). I pull up at the trailhead and see this group of boys and I'm so dang nervous, but when I park, I see Chad walking up to my car with the biggest smile on his face and arms wide open to give me a huge hug. It was like we'd known each other for years and have been inseparable ever since.
