Our first picture taken together after a Lincoln High School football game. Drew used this an excuse to get Regan's number to send her the pic.

Drew asked Regan to be his girlfriend. He popped the big question in Regan's parent's basement. Drew recalls being anxious to hang out with his friends and watch WWE afterwards. Regan recalls Drew saying something to the effect of "I keep forgetting to ask you." Overall, very romantic.

Throughout Drew's senior year of high school & Regan's junior year, we attended all high school dances together, hung out in our parent's basements, and spent time with our friends.

Drew graduated high school & headed off to college at USD while Regan finished her senior year of high school.

Our one year anniversary of dating! While Drew was in Vermillion and Regan in Sioux Falls, we drove to visit one another as often as we could.

We're both officially Yotes! Regan joined Drew at USD after she graduated high school. We had so much fun in our three years at USD together. We attended frat formals, game days, vacations, date nights, and more. We also did study, and had quite a few classes together since Regan was an accounting major and Drew was an accounting minor.

Drew graduates college & moves to Sioux Falls to begin working. Regan finished her senior year of college in Vermillion.

Drew's 24th birthday, which was spent with friends at the river! Regan moved back to Sioux Falls, and commuted to Vermillion for the next year while finishing her master's degree.

Regan surprised Drew with a trip to Arizona for their seven year anniversary. We went on a hot air balloon ride, hiking, visited Drew's grandma, and visited friends.

We officially moved in together. Regan moved in with Drew and his cousin Jason, until we got an apartment downtown Sioux Falls about six months later. The week we moved into the apartment, Drew came home and told Regan he "toured a house, he wasn't going to say anything but he really liked it." We eventually decided the home was a good decision for us and closed about two months after moving into the apartment.

We attended many of our dear friends weddings, and loved celebrating their love! We also moved into our home around this time.

Regan received her CPA license from the South Dakota Board of Accountancy. Drew supported Regan throughout her studies, in particular by making sure she was fed & comforting her through a few tears.

We got our babyy! Drew found Berkley at a hunting lodge. She was working at the lodge, but wasn't too great at her job. As a result she was fired, and we were lucky enough to take her home to be our couch potato. We love her more than anything, and she has been such a fun addition to our household.

Drew proposed on a vacation in Europe. Our first stop was Bornholm, Denmark which is where Regan's grandpa grew up. Regan's grandpa passed away when she was young, but she loves visiting his homeland and connecting with family. Drew proposed on the second day of vacation after visiting a couple of Regan's favorite towns together. Regan's family, who we were staying with, were waiting back at the house to celebrate that evening. We had another day or so in Bornholm before we headed to Rome & Venice together. Lastly, we met up with Regan's friends Amanda & Hannah in Salzburg and traveled to Vienna together. This trip was such a special two weeks for us to spend together just enjoying our engagement.
