As many of you know, Allison and Colton met in their hometown of Jasper, Texas while they were in high school. Their paths first crossed in January of 2019 as Colton was searching for a date for his senior prom, and Allison had the height that made for the perfect match. Getting to know each other in time for prom night quickly transformed into dating shortly after Valentines Day, and they have been inseparable ever since.

As graduation soon approached, Colton decided to continue his education and athletic career at TJC in Tyler, Texas as a member of the football team. They each knew that they didn't want to live a life without the other. So for the next two years, Colton and Allison continued their relationship from two different cities, making up for the distance through hours of FaceTime and the many weekend trips back home Colton made to see her.

After counting down the days until being in the same town together, the two saw attending Texas A&M University as the perfect opportunity to obtain their college degrees together. Allison applied and was accepted, and Colton submitted his transfer application where their plan proved to be successful.

Since then, Allison and Colton have made countless memories in Aggieland. From football games, navigating classes, friends, and nights on the town, they did it exactly how they always wanted: together! Allison and Colton's favorite thing they shared was their love for Moose, a corgi who they brought home in the spring of their first year at TAMU. For the next three years, they enjoyed sharing even more memories together and knew, even in high school, that they had found their best friend and forever partner in each other.

Colton graduated from Texas A&M in December 2023, and Allison graduated in May 2024. Since that time, they have both remained in College Station, navigating adulthood together with their newest corgi addition, Maverick. As Allison *somewhat* patiently waited on an engagement, Colton proposed October 20, 2024 in Aggie Park.

They are thrilled to be planning the wedding they have dreamed of for over 6 years! Allison and Colton are preparing for their future together, trusting God's plan and knowing they will continue to lean on and support each other no matter what life brings their way!
