Scooter & Kaylee met in 2020 when their mutual friends, Dakota & Allie introduced them. It was an instant connection... especially around their mutual love for baseball. After a single date at the end of the summer of 2020, there was a definite long-term connection. However, there was one issue... Scooter had already committed to moving back to Jamestown, ND to finish school and help coach the Jimmies Baseball team.

Over the school year, Scooter & Kaylee connected from time to time. Luckily, Scooter returned back to the Seattle area for the summer of 2021 to coach baseball. Allie and Dakota ended up inviting both of them to a Mariners game (how fitting!!) and the connection was instantly rekindled. That entire summer they were inseparable.

Scooter asked Kaylee to be his girlfriend on August 17, 2021 and the rest has been history.

Scooter & Kaylee have enjoyed COUNTLESS baseball games together over the last three years, have travelled to the Dominican Republic, road tripped to North Dakota, and spent lots of time together travelling up and down I5 to visit both of their families.

On January 20, 2024 Scooter got down on one knee at Chateau St Michelle and asked Kaylee to spend the rest of their lives together. He pulled off the perfect surprise (not even telling her friends, Reilly and Stephanie who were with them, that he was doing it till about 30 minutes before he asked the question). And now they are so excited to tie the knot in front of God, their family, and their friends.

Cheers to forever!
