We first met at Olivet College (now called The University of Olivet) during band camp and found out we both were art majors.

This was our first official date was at Schuler's in Marshall, MI! I say that because I was oblivious to the fact that I was on a date with Tyler for the first few :)

Qdoba dates were a go to for us :)

Before Tyler traveled to Florida for Christmas with his family, we went ice skating at Rosa Parks Circle. I warned him that I was terrible at ice skating and he didn't believe me until we started skating.

We were fortunate to get a scholarship from school to travel to Italy with a small class to learn about Renaissance artwork and experience the culture. A trip we will never forget! This photo is us on top of the Duomo.

Visits to Don Tequila's was a frequent date too :)

My first time camping up on the Thenikl property!

When the Bitmoji story even captured us perfectly

Had to keep the tradition of our anniversary at Schuler's going!

We love going to art museums together :)

Our college's club Art Alliance had an art show at the art gallery we lived above! It was Tyler's first apartment, but after Covid hit, I moved in.

During Covid, Tyler and I would kayak to help get out of the house.

For our 3 year anniversary, we went on our first vacation together to Mackinac Island. Dinner had in Mackinaw City :)

Ruth Louise's Gotcha Day!

Even though we graduated from Olivet in May 2020, we were able to walk for graduation in 2021!

Tyler got accepted to Ohio University for their Masters in Fine Arts (MFA) program. So, we packed our bags and moved to OH! Shout out to the friends and family that helped us make this move.

While living in Ohio, we found our favorite local spots such as Donkey Coffee, Athens Upcycle, and of course Passion Works.

The day Tyler proposed :) HUGE thank you to those who helped Tyler make this day so special for us :)

Adopted our first cat, Miss Lilly Jean!

Traveled to Indiana for my masters degree graduation :)

We adopted the stray who has been hanging around our Ohio apartment. Welcome home Giorno!
