When Tanner moved from Epworth to Grinnell for college, fate did it's thing and the pair met in August 2018 while Tanner was visiting Pella. After realizing the strong connection they had, the pair began to date on October 21st, 2018. They always support each other in every way and are always there for each other. They enjoy exploring caves, adventuring, and playing disc golf together (even though Courtney is terrible at it). We knew from early on that we had found "the one". On March 21st, 2020, Tanner proposed to Courtney while the two were out shooting together at the Vontalge's farm. Even though Courtney missed the target, she still said yes. On April 24th, 2020, the pair tied the knot in Manchester. Now, after a long deployment and post-corona, we are ready to redo the "I Do"!
