It all began one night long ago that seems like it was just yesterday. The single greatest and amazing love story that has ever come about in the 21st Century.

We met in a very unique way, through liking each other’s stunning photographs over a dating app! From then on we messaged and messaged until Aldyn mentioned her favorite drink - the Old Fashioned. On January 27th, 2021 we finally met at the not-so-divey Armoury bar in Deep Ellum to share Old Fashioneds and get to know each other in person. The conversation ranged from pretty much everything... high school, college, family, favorite musical composers, and even basketball. After getting to know one another we called it a night and decided to meet for a second date then and there.

From then on it was history. We went on all kinds of dates like an evening at Cidercade where one of us excelled at NFL Blitz and the other was incredible at Mario Kart - well let you guess who won which. Others, like actual go-karting, shooting, fancy dinners to Chipotle, and so much more. We eventually met each other’s lovely families and got to know them really well - even going on adventures with them to many distant lands such as Mexico and the ever so exotic Wisconsin.

And through it all our love never wavered. After nearly three years together we knew we were meant to be. On one cloudy winter day, we drove out to White Rock Lake for what was called “Aldyn’s pre-birthday surprise”. Unknown to her a proposal was on the way. We walked around the lake for a bit and then stood underneath a big tree where the question was asked and answered with a teary eyed joyful “YES!!!!!”.
