My date I randomly got set up with for Chi O Formal in April of 2023

About a week later Joe took me Fishing for our 1st Date (also the same spot he asked me out)

we went on another date and hung out a few more times, but the spring semester was quickly coming to an end. I ended up breaking things off and we did not talk the entire summer.

The Lord used our time apart to work in our hearts, and to prepare us for something greater.

At the end of the summer, Joe reached out and we started talking again. August 27th Joe officially asked me to be his girlfriend in a random parking lot while we were eating our Andy's ice cream.

Our first year of dating was very eventful! We both grew SO MUCH and had lots of fun!

1 year anniversary!

Joe proposed a few weeks after our 1 year anniversary! I was convinced we were just going fishing at the spot he first asked me out...
