We met online on Jake's birthday in 2022!

We had our first date in Cedar Falls at the OP! It was really cold, but we walked around after we ate lunch. Kaylee slipped on the ice but didn't fall (she caught herself but Jake thinks he caught her). They also walked in a few places on Main Street spending the whole afternoon chatting.

On a date to Dairy Queen, Jake asked Kaylee to officially be his girlfriend!
