Our Wedding

Our love story began with a simple "swipe right". After not having much luck with the local dating scene, we both looked to online dating. Luckily, we both had the same idea to try Bumble. After a few failed blind dates we both (unbeknownst to each other) decided we should expand our settings. Low and behold we popped up on each others profiles, both swiped right, and MATCHED! So for those who don't know, Bumble requires the girl to send the first chat. With me (Kate) being the clever and witty girl I am, a fetching message like "Hi there. How are you?" was sent. Which was just enough to catch Trevor's interest and keep the conversation going. Trevor asked me out to dinner to Rumors on Ice where we shared pizza and good conversation. Trevors job at that time took him traveling overseas for months at a time. After a couple more dates, Trevor planned an amazing "Explore St. Louis" date night before he left again for work for 4-5 months. We kept in touch as much as we could, growing to learn more about each others interests (like our love of Marvel movies, trying new restaurants, and all our "favorites”) and hobbies (like Trevors love for exotic cars). After Trevor returned home from work, our love story continued. Within that same year, we found out we were pregnant, so Trevor went out to travel one last time, returning home to a 7 month old pregnant girlfriend. (Thanks Covid for the expanded months apart). Eli arrived in late 2021 making us a family of three. Now we've been blessed to be able to share all our experiences and hobbies with him, continuing our story together. On Christmas Eve 2024, Trevor decided to finally propose getting our family in on the scheming. Every year we play Rob Your Neighbor and this year my mom decided to switch up how we play. Instead of drawing numbers and picking whichever gift you choose, this year she numbered each gift, so whatever number you drew is what gift you picked. Well, my number 1 led me to a beautiful engagement ring, Trevor down on one knee, and a "Will you marry me?". (Of course I said YES!) I'm so excited to be changing my name to match my boys', and we're excited to celebrate the day with all of our closest friends and family!
