One random day in the 2021-2022 academic year, Carter was visiting his brother at his frat house in Philadelphia. Little did he know, Hailey was a student at another local university who frequently attended parties at the same frat house. One late night at a party in the very same frat house in 2021. Carter decided to make a move on Hailey, to which she promptly rejected him. However, years later, Carter had seen Hailey on a sceevy app, which will remain unnamed, and swiped right. Hailey, very nervous about actually meeting someone from the internet, decided that it was worth the risk with him, and swiped right. And after that, the rest was history...

April 11th, 2024. Hailey had spent a long day in class, and had an exam for anatomy lab, and Carter had spent the day working at Walgreens. They had been texting for a few weeks and decided to meet in person. It was a Thursday, so Hailey had reservations about meeting, but Carter, being the true gentleman that he is, offered to drive to her. That said, upon arrival, Carter couldn't park his car, and Hailey needed to parallel park for him. It was at this time that they realized they both drove KIA Souls. Hailey then took Carter for a drive around Philadelphia, showing him the best liquor store and the best cheesesteaks in all of Philly (Leo's for the win). They then went back to Hailey's Apartment and shared a bottle of watermelon wine, eating cheesesteaks on the floor, while watching Shrek. At the end of the night, Hailey had walked Carter to his car, and they shared their first kiss. The streetlights had just come on, and the rain had just started to come down the moment their lips locked. It was fate.

On one October night, October 22nd, 2024 to be exact, Hailey and Carter were doing their regular night routine at Carter's parents house. They were sitting at the kitchen table, doing homework and listening to a TV show in the background. Carter suggested that he and Hailey do something special, on this random Tuesday night, and splurge to get one of our favorite foods - steak. Rather than making our own steak, in the spirit of a surprise date night, Carter and Hailey went to Texas Roadhouse. After a fantastic steak dinner, we returned to Carter's parent's house. Carter then said he "forgot something in the car." When he came back to the kitchen table, he said Hailey had left mail in his car. Hailey was confused, not thinking she had left anything behind/ That's when Carter popped the question, and presented Hailey with the most beautiful ring she had ever seen. And, to absolutely no surprise, Hailey said yes.

And it wouldn't be Hailey and Carter without mentioning their kitty cat Menache. More commonly known as Menace, Hailey, and Carter adopted her from a very close friend (aka the Best Woman). This little kitty lives up to her troublesome name, and she is at the center of Hailey and Carter's little farm full of loving pets.
