We're getting married!

Tanner and Taylor swiped right on each other on Tinder. Before they met in person, there was never a dull moment in their conversations. Their first date was at Fuzzy’s on January 14, 2023. True to themselves, Tanner was 20 minutes early to the date, and Taylor was 10 minutes late. None of that mattered though. Tanner was absolutely floored when he first saw Taylor walk through the doors. Two weeks later, they told each other they love each other and became official. Tanner finished his school year teaching in Sterling, CO and then moved in with Taylor in Greeley, CO. They spent the whole summer traveling from the beaches of Florida to the coast of California and road-trips in between. On November 3, 2023, Tanner and Taylor went to the Border War game (Colorado State vs Wyoming) at Memorial War Stadium in Laramie, WY, where Tanner got down on one knee and asked Taylor to spend the rest of her life with him. The diamond was the most beautiful thing she had ever seen (aside from Tanner himself), and honestly you couldn't even notice where the Titanic hit it. She answered with a tear and a big nod. Tanner's smile stretched for miles. The fact that there isn't a cheesy romcom based on these two is complete blasphemy. They've enjoyed traveling together, talking about and watching sports, and trying new things, such as oysters and snowboarding. They can spend hours in the car together and not listen to music because they love talking about everything from imagining stories or analyzing hypothetical situations. There really is never a dull moment with them.
