We first met at a small group Bible study in 2023. We then began dating on June 30, 2024 and by October 27, 2024 we got engaged!

In the beginning when I first met Ella I found out that she is very persistent. One way it was shown was avoiding me as much as possible or if I asked her a question it was always super short quick answers.

In the beginning when I first started getting to know Elijah I discovered he was very very good at being sarcastic. He would hint at things and then he would presume others around him understood what he meant - which led to some pretty funny situations.

One comedic situation was when he first asked me to be his girlfriend. He didn't actually say the words but hinted at it. So, naturally, not getting a clear cut question/answer, I ended up debating for 2 weeks if I actually had a boyfriend or not. Whenever anyone asked me, they got the long 'I think so but I'm not sure. It is complicated.' answer. We did obviously clear that up at a later date.
