Ty and I first crossed paths at Chick-fil-A, where I was stationed at the cash register. He had just wrapped up duck hunting with some friends and dropped in for a quick dinner. Fate smiled upon me that day because, alongside Ty, was his best friend Eric—a familiar face and a perfect excuse for me to strike up a conversation. As high schoolers, Ty handed me his Snapchat that night, marking the beginning of our journey into a beautiful relationship.

As the years unfolded, we navigated the challenges of high school, pursued education at TCC, and eventually relocated to Pensacola with dogs, Maverick and Goose. Together, we embraced the academic rigors at the University of West Florida, emerging soon with the shared accomplishment of earning our Bachelor's degrees in business.

A pivotal moment graced my last birthday—an occasion that held extra significance as Ty chose that moment to ask the most important question of our lives. Seated on the beach, Ty's brother Cole made a surprise appearance, adding an unexpected layer of joy to the day. After a delightful few minutes together, Ty orchestrated a tender moment, requesting the sunscreen. As I turned around, there he was, on a bent knee, asking for my hand in marriage. Ty's heartfelt proposal made that day an unforgettable chapter in our love story.
