Where does our story begin? I first met Troy way back in middle school around 2016. I remember us flirting as weird middle school kids at my locker in the seventh grade. Little did I know he was the man I would be marrying one day. After that, we didn't speak again until I was going to high school. I remember always asking him questions about high school, just so I would get to talk to him. Then we went our separate ways again and started talking to each other once again during my junior year. We hung out and spent a few weeks together and then didn't speak again for an entire year. The fall of 2020 was when we began talking again. He got his friends, and I got my friends to play the infamous "Among Us" together. We would all Facetime, and laugh, and have fun together. When that happened, I knew I had the biggest crush on him, but I was not going to do anything about it. We didn't talk again until a random day the following April. Ever since he randomly texted me on that random April day, it's all been history since. We began officially dating on June 2, 2021. After only a few months I knew this was the person I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. His love is so gentle and so kind. He makes me laugh until my stomach hurts. He is my favorite person to be around. He will always be my home. Troy proposed on March 20, 2024. The happiest day of our lives yet! September 6, 2025, will become our new happiest day to date. But until then, this love story shall continue...

Where does our story begin? I first met Sophie in 7th grade when she was friends with one of mine. We had a middle school "relationship" however you would label that. Obviously, that didn't work out. Moving into high school we would talk off and on but nothing stuck. We'd see each other around but act like total strangers. Then we played a game called Among Us with our friend groups together, and that game eventually died out and we never really talked until April of 2021. I randomly texted her to see if she wanted to reconnect and it's been history since. I'm forever grateful that we've reconnected and now are on our way to getting married. I love Sophie and can't wait for the future that is ahead of us.
