Jacob and Emily met for the first time on June 1st, 2014. They had been set up by a mutual friend and decided a trip to Island Park would be the best way to meet. Jacob asked Emily to be his girlfriend at the end of the date. As time went on they enjoyed lots of Homecomings, Proms, Band Competitions, and Baseball games. In 2016, they graduated from high school and embarked on their college journey. Although they did not attend the same universities they made it a point to spend as many weekends together as they could. In 2020, Emily graduated from MSU and moved back home. In the Fall of that year, Jacob and Emily made their first big purchase together...Winston! In February 2022, Emily and Jacob bought their first home and moved in. Home renovations and playing with Winston kept them busy. In March 2023, Jacob and Emily decided to take a trip to Gatlinburg, TN. During the trip, Jacob popped the question and FINALLY asked Emily to marry him!
