Our love story began in 2018 where we shared our first date at a pool hall, cueing up personal stories while lining up the cue for a perfect shot. Our connection initially grew from our shared love of country music, spending time outdoors and love for family. This connection made traveling from our respective houses in Arvada to Fort Collins or vice versa seem like only a small challenge due to a hope of a future.

As time passed, the distance apart became shorter as the seriousness of the relationship grew stronger. As with any relationship, we experienced some ups and downs, but in the end those challenges allowed us to become closer and learn more about one another.

We enjoy traveling to warm places that have beaches, making it only fitting that Janae said “YES” while on a vacation in Florida. Since that day on the beach, our connection continues to expand and intensify through the love for paddle boarding, camping and passion for sporting events. Whether we are taking long walks in the park with our two dogs or cheering on our favorite teams, every adventure and experience is filled with joy and excitement.
