We met in February of 2022 at Auburn University. We had instant chemistry and connected over our love of nature, art, and having a good time. After Charlie graduated in May of 2023, he moved to Spencer, IA to pursue a job opportunity. After I graduated in December, I followed my heart and moved to Iowa to be with him. We made a happy home with ourselves and our babies, Poppy the puppy and Hammy the kitty. We survived a flood that decimated our rural community and left us homeless for 3 weeks. Being so far away from our friends and family, we learned to lean on each other. Through our hardships, our love grew stronger than we ever thought was possible. We are beyond excited to get married and be unified as one under the Lord and the law. We are so happy to have you there to witness this moment for us!
