Kiley had recently moved to the Waco area with her parents and started working with Jeff at Cabelas. After a couple months of awkward conversations at work Kiley decided to leave a note on Jeff's truck with her number on it. A few days later they went on their first date to Chicken Express- Kiley's favorite fast food restaurant.

The two spent most every day together either hanging out at their parent's houses, going out for food, or going on hikes with Jeff's dog. After about a year and a half of dating they decided to move in together.

It wasn't long after this that Kiley started dropping hints that Jeff should propose. He already knew that he wanted to marry her, but wanted to wait for the right time. He not so secretly picked a ring out and decided on a date. On April 9th, 2023 the two went on a hike at Colorado Springs National Park, and when the two stopped at an opening overlooking the park, Jeff popped the question.
