We met at Leading Edge Acadamy Middle School in Arizona at age 12. We had all of the same classes together, but we got to work together in a group in our history class. We clicked instantly and started talking every day. September 24th, 2015, we officially started dating!
We went to different high schools but still spent every day together after school. Our senior year of high school, Ethan unfortunately had to move to New Mexico with his family. COVID came at a convenient time as school was moved online, we were able to visit each other every month until I left for college in August.
August of 2020, I left for college in Iowa! Ethan spent a lot of time working in New Mexico while I was in college. We were able to visit each other every couple few months where my schedule would allow it while I was in college for 2 years.
After I graduated in May of 2022, we moved into our first apartment together in New Mexico. On September 19th, 2022, we went to one of our favorite spots in New Mexico where Ethan ended up proposing!
We are so excited for our wedding as we have been waiting a long time! We cannot wait to celebrate our lives together.
