Tyler started working at the Edgewood Road Hy-Vee not long after I had left that store to work at Mercy. My sister was working at the store at the time along with Sue, someone I had worked with at Hy-Vee. They kept telling each other, Tyler, and myself that they thought we would make a cute couple. I had been visiting Kyla periodically to eat with her, and started visiting more frequently when I found this out. After continuing to visit Hy-Vee more often and I had gotten to know Tyler a little, I sent Tyler a friend request on Facebook, and I messaged him on Messenger. We started talking July 9th, 2022, our first date was August 21st, 2022, and we started dating October 22nd, 2022. We got engaged on October 2nd, 2023!! We have now been together almost 2 years, and engaged for almost 1 year. We can't wait to share our special day with you all!
