Ayden and Alala met in the summer of 2020. Despite COVID making it challenging to meet new people, the stars aligned. The two met while going night swimming at Raintree lake. Alala & her friends were having a girls night, when they decided to head down to the swim dock. There was already a group of guys down there, but they decided to just make new friends. The shy, curly headed boy caught Alala's attention. A few weeks later, Ayden called Alala and asked her on a date. The rest is history.

The two moved in together a year later, and adopted their first dog, Koda. Since then, the two have been building a life together. Ayden supported Alala through college. Despite lots of tears over math homework, & many sleepless nights his commitment to her never waivered. Ayden has since joined the Electrical Workers Union and begun to establish a career.

Ayden and Alala share a passion for the outdoors and traveling. The two have traveled to Puerto Rico together and Ayden has joined on the yearly Turner family vacation to Idaho the last 3 summers. There have been many camping trips with family and friends and many more to come. Ayden has taken Alala fishing down at the Morris family farm multiple times, and has even gotten her to hold a fish (she does not enjoy touching fish).

Ayden proposed to Alala on January 25th, 2024. The two are incredibly excited to enter this next chapter together. and continue to build a life full of love, laughter, and happiness with their favorite people by their side.
