We met at the Franklin Fire Company where McKenzie and my brother, Cameron, are firefighters. Cameron brought me into the firehouse one evening to hang out. If you're familiar with the Franklin's, you know the table in the engine bay is the place everyone congregates. As fate would have it, that also happened to be where McKenzie was spending his evening that night. - Courtney We technically “met” for the first time when we were about 10 years old at the Chambersburg YMCA. We also graduated high school together but really only knew of each other until that night at the firehouse.
We were traveling to a nearby cabin that we rented for my birthday weekend. When it came time for birthday presents, McKenzie brought out one present - a pair of fuzzy Crocs. After I opened that present, he said “now close your eyes for the next one,” left the room and came back. When I opened my eyes he was on one knee with a ring! Obviosuly, I said YES! After some celebratory kissing, he also gave me a super cute mug that read, “Future Mrs. Winklbauer.” - Courtney
