Cole & I first met in May of 2014 at the Red Hen in Dilworth. Cole saw me sitting at the other end of the bar and bought me a shot, I of course had to walk down to see if he was cute or not! We ended up talking until the bar closed and the rest is history.

We started dating almost immediately and were pretty much inseparable. Cole had just moved back to Roseau that summer so our first few months together were long distance, even Cole made his way to Glyndon almost every weekend!

As most of you know, our story changed dramatically in September of 2014 when we found out we were expecting a BABY! Cole ended up moving back to Fargo and in May of 2015 we got our first apartment together. We welcomed our baby boy, Landon, on June 2nd, 2015!

We had a fast start to our relationship but I wouldn't change it for the world. We spent the next how many years growing as a couple and raising Landon together. We ended up moving into the country outside of Glyndon, where I grew up, in September of 2018.

In December of 2019, we decided to take our first couples trip to Clearwater, FL! Up until we left I had so many people asking me if I thought Cole was going to propose, I told every person there was no way he was going to propose and I had no hope haha! Our first official day there (after a long day of delayed & cancelled flights) we spent the day exploring the area around our hotel and getting some food & drinks nearby. Cole asked me if I wanted to go on the beach to watch the sunset so I said sure! We were walking out to the beach holding hands and I kept asking him why his hands were so sweaty and he kept saying he was just hot, when actually he was panicking inside because he was preparing to propose! We got to the beach and I was standing there babbling and when I turned around to say something to Cole he was knelling on one knee. While Cole was trying to be romantic and say something sweet, all that could come out of my mouth was "shut up" he cut his proposal short and ended with "so is that a yes or.." lol I said yes!!

We started planning our wedding for June 19th of 2021 until Covid hit.. by the end of the summer in 2020 we decided to postpone our wedding until June 18th of 2022. After that decision we had a lot of changes & added some family members. We decided to plan for a baby and I found out I was pregnant in September of 2020! We bought our first house in October, we got 2 kittens, Shadow & Thor in February, we welcomed our baby girl, Penelope Jo, on May 24th of 2021 and finally got our puppy, Kodi in July!

We are so excited to finally to be able to celebrate with all our family & friends on our special day that we have been patiently waiting for! Can't wait to see everyone in June!
