Kristy asked Tim to meet her for coffee and gave him a two-hour window in which to make it work. They put on their masks (Covid protocols still in place indoors) and met at Chateau Chantilly. As Kristy approached, she found Tim sitting outside the cafe wearing a Michigan mask! She quickly announced, "I don't know if this is going to work out." Kristy's comes from a family of Ohio State fans. If you know, you know- this is a conflict. Luckily, they were able to move past that and went on to have a great date full of conversation, laughter, smiles, and pictures of their respective dogs.

Since that day Tim and Kristy have enjoyed many more laughs and each other's company. They have navigated life's challenges and excitement over the past few years and have grown in love together. Tim has become a supportive bonus parent to Tyler and Whitney. We look forward to all the future has in store for us.
