We met in 2021 after Victoria unexpectedly got a job with a casino she had applied for months prior; at the same time Tyler was just getting back into Montana from working out of state. We were introduced by my coworker and as much as I wish I could say it was love at first sight... for obvious reasons he was not a fan of me at first. (For those of you who may not know I share a first name with his lovely ex-wife), So our story started out more like enemies to lovers at first. A week prior to meeting Tyler I had just gotten our dog, Brutus. Tyler had become one of my regular customers at work, sometimes staying for my whole shift just to hang out with me. Once we started getting to know each other better, I developed a huge crush and decided to shoot my shot by asking if he would like to join me and Bru on a hike sometime. He immediately said "no", and I assumed he wasn't interested (He swears now that he didn't know I was asking him out). This culminated into a few more weeks of slyly flirting with one another until a friend of his had asked if I'd be interested in going out with him in front of Tyler. He was absolutely pissed about it but it was exactly the kick in the ass he needed to ask me on a date & ever since I've had him hook, line & sinker. :) Tyler was born in 1993 in Winston-Salem, NC, to his mother Diana Landsverk and his father John Parker. He grew up spending most of his time between North Carolina and spent summers in Virginia where his beloved Granny & Pawpaw (who are now dearly missed) lived, along with his older sister Lindsey. He loved hunting and shooting, wrestled in high school, and attended college in Virginia Beach to get his associates degree in auto mechanics. On the exact opposite coast, Victoria was born in 1999 in Merced, CA, to Annette Davis and Laurence Davis (who is now dearly missed). She grew up in Oroville, California with her older sister Ashley Davis who is no longer with us sadly. Vic found a love for riding while spending a lot of time with her aunt and uncle, Clare & Bob Cassone, and their horses. Found passion in Softball & competitive Cheerleading before moving to the east coast briefly and then Montana in 2015 where she truly fell in love with the outdoors & exploring. Tyler has 3 beautiful daughters: Madelyn, Ryleigh, & Chelsea who are just all you could ever ask for when it comes to having children. The sweetest, funniest, brightest little humans & the perfect amount of sassiness to go with it. We are very lucky. :) We could not have grown up any further apart and the life circumstances that had to align for us to even meet truly does feel like a miracle that we even met. Now we live in Montana with our dog Brutus & our cats Esco, & Harley. Victoria is still a casino attendant & Tyler works in the Motorcycle industry. We spend time Traveling as much as we can and spend much of our time just being homebodies spending time with one another. While most of the time we already refer to one another as Husband & Wife we are very excited to make it official! Can't wait to see what the rest of our life has in store for us. :)
