Our Story

Kevin and Amanda met through Grandpa Terry and Kevin’s Mother Wendie Morgan. Amanda was checking in on Kevin's Grandpa Terry to make sure he had a ride to go pick up his car from the mechanic shop. When Wendie was pulling into the driveway to take Grandpa Terry to the mechanic shop too. Later that evening Grandpa Terry told Amanda that Wendie had a son that just moved back to Idaho and they should hang out. Grandpa Terry told Amanda that he thought Kevin and her would make a cute couple and that she should meet him. He then showed a photo of Kevin to Amanda that Wendie text over to him. Grandpa Terry took Amanda out for dinner at Hardy’s after dinner he dropped Amanda back off at his house so Amanda could pick up her car. Wendie pulled up to check on him because the doctor called and Terry wasn’t answering and Wendie was worried. Wendie then proceeded to take a photo of Amanda and took her phone number to text over to Kevin. Later that night Kevin reached out to Amanda to introduce himself.

The Christmas River-December 16, 2023

We started our day off with cuddles and cartoons. Then we had a nice lunch together at Red Robin. After we did some Christmas shopping at the mall we returned home with chocolate eggnog. We wrapped gifts to a Hallmark Movie while enjoying our eggnog. That evening we met up to go look at some Christmas lights with Cody, Stephanie, and Marlee. We enjoyed hot chocolate and looking at all the pretty lights that looked like something from a Hallmark Movie. Shortly into looking at the lights Kevin found the most perfect spot with music and lights all around. He took Amanda aside and Kevin knelt on one knee and asked her to marry him. Amanda was in shock, but of course she said yes!! After the shock wore off they finished their magical evening looking at lights together. It couldn’t have been more magical.
