Our friendship began in the fall of 2014 during our freshman year at Stratford High School, where we met as teammates on the swim team. Over the years, we grew to be close friends. Morgen always joked that no one understood Peyton’s humor better than she did.

We shared our first class together junior year, and it wasn’t long before Peyton asked Morgen to the Homecoming dance. By December 2016, we were officially dating, and we have been together ever since.

After graduating in 2018, we navigated five years of long-distance, traveling often between San Antonio, College Station, and Houston. Peyton earned a degree in Finance from the University of Houston, while Morgen completed a Master of Science in Accounting at Trinity University.

In 2023, we joyfully ended our long distance chapter and reunited in Houston, where we now live and work. Being close to each other and to our friends and family has made life here incredibly special.

Then, in March 2025, after more than eight years together, Peyton planned a full day of celebration and surprised Morgen with a proposal surrounded by our closest family and friends.
