We met while both playing sports at SDSU and were in Comm 101 together as freshmen. Matt sat in the back of the class, while Spencer sat at the front (typical of both of us). Eventually, Spencer moved a little further back and sat a couple seats in front of Matt. A friendship started over giving each other a hard time and walking to the athletic center together for practice after class. Soon after, Matt asked Spencer out to dinner and took her to Corner Bakery for their first date.
Although 2020 was such a hard year for so many people, we were blessed to have a silver lining right before Christmas. Matt proposed while standing under Christmas lights at the Mission Inn.
