Our story began in the quietest way—two kids at the same preschool, unaware that fate had already begun to gently stitch our lives together.
We grew up in the same hometown, our childhood homes less than a mile apart. We played on the same playground off of Appletree Lane, probably just minutes apart, never knowing the person who’d one day mean everything was always right around the corner.
We went to the same school, walked the same high school halls—but never once spoke. Life kept us close, yet just out of reach, waiting for the right time to bring us together.
College took us in different directions—Katherine to Grand Valley, Kyle to Ferris State—but after that, we both found ourselves back in Fenton. And that’s when everything changed.
A simple reconnection turned into long talks, endless laughter, and a love that felt like it had been growing quietly all along, just waiting to be found.
Then, on a beautiful morning by the waves of Lake Huron in Tawas, Kyle knelt in the sand and asked Katherine to spend forever with him. With the lake breeze in the air and hearts full of love, she said yes.
From sandbox beginnings to side-by-side soulmates, this is our story—written over years, woven by fate, and finally unfolding into our forever.
