They didn't immediately start dating though. Neither of them were quite ready yet, and had decided to take a break from "the apps" which lasted around a month. God must have been pulling on Olivia's heart though, because Levi received a message that brightened his day. . .

Olivia and Levi texted each other for a while after that, this was around Christmas time, which meant they weren't able to go out in person yet because of traveling. So, they did what any excited couple would do, and had their first date via Facetime.

Once they were both back in town, they went on a few in person dates. Bru Burger, Christmas lights at Newfields, and dog sitting for the Scott's. After Levi saw how much Olivia loved dog sitting, he knew it was time. He asked her to make things official.

Olivia and Levi's first picture together was taken at a movie they had gone to with some friends, Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania.

About 5 months into dating, a tragedy happened for Olivia and Levi. Olivia's longtime pet rabbit, best friend, and queen of the house, Phoebe passed away suddenly. This time was obviously hard for Olivia and Levi, but helped bring them even closer together.

Olivia had Phoebe for about 4 years and was a huge part of Olivia's life, especially during the COVID/quarantine time. Phoebe was a brat, but the sweetest and best bunny to have around. She'll be missed dearly and always remembered.

Very soon after this, some good news came that changed Olivia and Levi's life forever. Levi found a Labradoodle Puppy on Facebook, and Olivia a bit later found a baby bunny too.

In comes Appa and Millie (can you tell we love animals?).

Now that they had began to grow their family, Appa, Millie, and Winston, there was really only one thing left to do: getting engaged.

Olivia and Levi had been discussing and praying to God about engagement/marriage towards the end of 2023 and both felt very ready to take that step. God had set all the pieces up, now all Levi had to do was ask.

March 29, 2024 at Newfields was the day Levi asked Olivia to be his wife forever. Lots of planning went into it, with the help of Olivia's Maid of Honor, Audrey and her parents that were coming up that weekend for Easter.

Olivia definitely knew something was going on when Levi and her parents wanted to go to Newfields altogether, but she acted along the whole time. Levi got down on one knee to propose, he completely lost all words and started cry. Luckily Olivia still said yes even though Levi couldn't get his words out. It was a moment that neither one will ever forget.

It truly was the best day since yesterday.
