Around October of 2023, Brayden and I met on a Christian dating app called Upward. I was on it for about a week when I decided that it was just not for me! I logged into the app to delete it, but something stopped me. I saw a message from Brayden in my inbox! He asked me "What's it like hanging out with 2nd graders all day long?" He knew the way to my heart! We went on our first date shortly after, and we knew pretty quickly that there was something very special between us. It didn't take much longer than a few dates to dive deep into what was important to us. We quickly realized that we wanted the exact same things out of life, and it didn't take long until we couldn't imagine it without each other in it. Fast forward to October 19th, 2024 (almost exactly one year after our first date), Brayden proposed to me overlooking Grapevine Lake. God has far exceeded our prayers! We can't wait to celebrate our special day with all of our loved ones!
