It all began one Spring afternoon in 2017 at the local Dairy Queen. I remember my shift was coming to an end and Dan comes around the corner and says "sup". Clearly, that swept 17-year-old me off my feet because I immediately changed all my shifts to work with him. We got to know each other while we made ice cream sandwiches, blizzards, and ice cream sundaes. A couple weeks later, Dan finally asked me to go on our first date.

It was Easter 2017 and I was just so eager to spend my holiday evening inside Dairy Queen. As I was walking into my shift, visor on, I walked right into a new but beautiful face. I summoned up all my cool guy juice to hit her with a patented "sup?". The rest of my shift was spent trying to find out who "Ally T" was and why I just used all my mojo on her. That week we worked together and bagged ice cream sandwiches and had a blast (the simplicities of being 17). After impressing her with my blizzard making skills and ability to look not 100% like a dweeb in a visor, I finally got her number and planned a date.

-Dan

Since we met working at Dairy Queen, we have only continued to grow together and love each other more every single day. We enjoyed both of our senior proms and graduated high school together. We went to different colleges, but Dan made the trip up to Temple University every chance he could (even though he hates driving in the city). We were too eager to live together so we moved in to our first apartment even before graduation. We both became actual adults and started our careers shortly after galavanting in Europe. Our 6 years of dating were filled with milestones, laughter, and lovely memories.

On May 7, 2023, Dan surprised Ally with an intimate, romantic proposal and a ring (that she most definitely picked out months before).

These little kitties are so special to us and such a lovely part of our story as a couple. Ally has always loved cats and Dan never had the chance to experience having a pet. Ever since Piper and Moonie were adopted, Dan has exponentially increased his love for cats (as seen permanently on his arm). The cats add so much more love and laughter to our lives. Unfortunately due to their strict napping schedule, they have declined the invitation to the wedding.
