In the bustling aisles of Menards, amidst the chatter of customers and the smell of fresh lumber, Daylynn and Ian’s paths crossed in 2023. At first, they were coworkers; then, they became friends, sharing quick laughs and easy conversation on breaks. But something about them just *clicked*, and soon they were inseparable, joined at the hip and ready to take on the world.

They filled their days with laughter and adventure, racing RC monster trucks and celebrating every victory over Super Mario Bros. Hiking trails turned into treasure hunts, and their shared love of horror movies gave them plenty of late-night thrillers to bond over. As their friendship grew, so did their feelings for each other—and soon, they were inseparable in every sense of the word.

Moving in together felt as natural as breathing, and they soon welcomed a few fur babies into their growing family. Their home was filled with love, laughter, and a bit of fur here and there, adding to the cozy chaos of life together.

After a year filled with joy, challenges, and more adventures than they could count, they made their way to Columbia, Missouri. There, they found a beautiful house that felt like it was waiting just for them—a place to call their own, where every day felt like a new chapter in their story. And as they stood hand in hand on the front steps, they knew that no matter where life took them next, they'd always be each other's greatest adventure.
