We met through our friend Giana. Giana brought Sidny to Austin's house for a bonfire where they then became friends. At the time, we didn’t think much of it—especially since the pandemic was winding down but still lingering. Before we knew it, just two months later, we were dating.

We started dating on October 6th, 2020, and from the very beginning, our connection felt natural and full of fun. Since then, we’ve created a life together filled with adventures and shared passions — from our annual mountain getaway and relaxing fishing days to sunny days in Virginia Beach and Chincoteague Island and an unforgettable Outer Banks vacation in June 2022. We’ve spent countless nights singing along at country concerts and cheering on the Eagles, Phillies, and Flyers at games we’ve attended together. Along the way, we’ve built a home full of love (and fur!) with our two amazing dogs, Bella and Kevin. Whether we’re exploring the outdoors, enjoying a quiet night in, or simply being together, every moment has brought us closer — and now we can’t wait to start this next chapter with all of you by our side.

For our second anniversary, Austin had planned a surprise picnic at our favorite fishing spot in Green Lane Park. He asked if I wanted to take pictures first or eat, and I said we should eat, but he insisted, "No, we're taking photos first." So, I went along with it, not expecting anything out of the ordinary. The next thing I knew, I was turned away from him, and when I turned around, there he was, on one knee, asking me to marry him!
