January 24th, 2024 - After a few months of talking casually as friends here and there at our young adults group, Aaron worked up the nerve to ask out Alysia! Obviously, she said yes!

We then got frozen yogurt at Twisted Tulip in Ripon and ended the night at GameStop before Aaron dropped her back off! We were definitely extremely awkward, but agreed that we wanted to see each other again!
