Our Story

Day One

Picture of Day One

Dan and I technically met online, through two different online dating sites (he was on one website, and I was on another), but somehow, we got matched up. We decided to meet at a coffee shop where we sat and talked for a couple hours.

And So On

After our initial meeting, we both got rid of our online dating accounts and dated exclusively.

Moving In

It didn't take long before we had decided that I would sell my townhouse in Woodbury and move with Dan in River Falls.

True Test

We've lived together for the last 3+ years and through Covid, so we think we know each other quite well now, we even got promise rings

Through the Tough Times

Dan was there for me when my mom passed away and I was there for him when he lost both his parents. 2022 was a difficult year all around!
