So, how did we both end up here? Well, it's a long story with a few turns here and there. We met at Hood College, where we both graduated with undergraduate and graduate degrees. Caleb knew of Samy far before Samy knew of Caleb. If you ask Caleb, he will likely tell you the first time he saw Samy; she was working as a Sports Medicine Assistant at one of his soccer games in the Fall of 2018. Caleb was infatuated, asking his teammates, "Woah! Who is that?" Though Caleb was busy in fantasyland swooning over Samy, our paths didn't cross until much later in the spring of 2019 when we both attended an accounting class together, and Samy asked Caleb for assistance in studying for a notably challenging class. Though our time together was busy crunching numbers, we both felt a unique connection and enjoyed each other's company. When the spring semester broke for summer, we parted ways until the fall of 2019, when our paths crossed again. At this point, we would be spending A LOT of time together, as Caleb was the Head Resident Assistant and supervisor for RA Samy in Coblentz Hall (scandalous). We spent a lot of time together, and the feelings grew stronger. A few months later, Caleb asked Samy to be his girlfriend while hiking in Shenandoah National Park. From there, we grew our relationship through several important life moments, such as multiple graduations, award ceremonies, lacrosse games, jobs, moving, a global pandemic, and many things in between (lots of travel). Caleb proposed to Samy in the spring of 2022 in Baker Park, where we had our first kiss. Samy said yes, and now we're here, planning our big day!
