Our story started way back when we were little kids playing at West Seminole baseball. Obviously all eyes were on me being the only girl out there, but I always had my eyes looking around for my future husband. Little did I know we would be on the same team together for multiple years. Collin and I had a relationship in high school that was short lived. Nevertheless, we found our way back to each other in college. Specifically, Collin was up visiting Gainesville for several weekends in a row and we began talking again. Then, there was this particular weekend in Gainesville where Collin stayed by me and my family’s side through one of the hardest moments in our lives and I knew he was the one I wanted to be with. We did our time long distance while we each finished up our college degrees, then ended up finding jobs in Jacksonville, FL. We got our girl Sadie together and then got engaged in Gainesville in November of 2024. I always say Collin can never surprise me, but he did the best job catching me off guard that day!
