We met in 2014 at Francis Howell Middle School and started dating in March of 2015, right before finishing up 8th grade. What started as a little middle school relationship slowly turned into something much more.

We went through high school together, and when college took us in different directions—Gracie to Missouri State and Garrett to Mizzou—we made long distance work for four years. Lots of drives, phone calls, and effort kept us close, even when we weren’t in the same place.

After college, we moved back home, started our jobs, got engaged, got a dog, and recently bought our first house together. It’s been 10 years since this all began, and while neither of us could’ve predicted it back then, we’re so grateful for how far we’ve come—and excited for what’s next!
