Kendra and Darrin's story began in 2019. They were both in their first year of college.

It did not take long for Darrin and Kendra's love to spark. They were inseparable, even though they were destined to be enemies. Really, a Brandon boy with a Parkers girl. Despite all, they cherished each other's presence.

Kendra went away for six months for military training, and Darrin stuck by her side through all of her crazy and whacky ideas. When she returned, they acted as if they were never apart.

Soon their friends started to blend together and they created their own "family".

They have been side by side through so many firsts for each other. Nursing school, military training, HVAC school, firemen/first responder training, and house buying.

Life seemed to zoom by, but stand still at the same time. Kendra and Darrin shared a great love for their black lab, Miley. They figured Miley was such a perfect dog, that they should get another dog. That idea maybe should have been reviewed longer...haha just kidding! Oakley is their yellow lab, who is also a big fan of golf balls. So much so that he decided he should eat one and make his net worth much larger (after invasive surgery of course).

The running joke was "Oakley ate Kendra's ring money" or in other words, buys Darrin some time before he had to go to the jewelry store.

In June of 2023, Darrin decided to stop blaming Oakley and get down on one knee.

The rest is history!
