Cam and Marshall met working at Northern Door Children's Center in Sister Bay (Door County), WI. Both a bit timid at first, Cam seized the opportunity to get to know Marshall more when she moved in across the street from him at the same apartment complex. Asking him for help unpacking turned out to be the best bout of courage she ever had.

They hung out for a few months as friends, making salsa and watching movies pretty much every day. The fact that Marshall let Cam choose every movie should have been a dead giveaway that Marshall caught feelings for the blue-haired cat mom.

When Marshall started asking Cam out, she had hesitations. Struggling with her sexuality, she wasn't sure a relationship with a man would work out. But the more time she spent with Marshall, the more she realized she didn't want to spend a single day away from him. On Cam's golden birthday, Marshall picked her flowers and wine, making many attempts to take her someplace special for dinner. After driving to 3 separate restaurants to find them all closed (classic Door County off-season) they sat in the parking lot of Hugel Haus debating what to do. It was that moment that Cam knew, if he was willing to put in that much effort and care before they were even together, he was well worth taking the chance of being together. She agreed, there in the dark parking lot, sitting in Marshall's rattling convertible, to be his girlfriend.

Dating for a year, moving in together, and spending as much time as they could with eachother, the tables turned quick as Cam was asking Marshall about marriage and a serious future as a couple. Marshall, the overthinking perfectionist that he is, took a year to prep and plan the asking of the big question.

On February 8, 2025, snowed-in in their shared apartment, Marshall gathered some of Cam's favorite snacks and a rose gift while Cam was in the shower. She came out to a dressed up Marshall playing Jeremy Zucker's "This is How You Fall In Love" and gifts on the bed. After opening the artificial rose, Marshall expressed that Cam deserved to have flowers every day. The rose he gifted will never die, similar to his love for her. There, in the privacy of their own home, Marshall got down on one knee beside the bed and gave a beautiful speech, asking Cam to marry him. Through a waterfall of tears, she said yes!
