Our story started in high school at Michigan Lutheran Seminary. Since freshman year we had been good friends. Our junior year of high school we started talking to each other. After Reagan was persistent for a couple months, I finally said yes on January 1, 2019. For the next two years we got really close and comfortable seeing each other pretty much every day. However, Reagan was going to MLC and I was staying in Michigan which would mean 4 years of long distance. After the second year of long distance, I was struggling to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Reagan reassured me that we would pick each other up on the days that were especially difficult. After that year we knew we never wanted to be with anyone else. One year later on June 30, 2023 Reagan proposed to me and we are beyond excited to get married on July 7, 2024!
