We actually met through the Facebook dating feature a week before July 4th 2023. On the 4th I was telling my family about him and Krystal suggested I invite him to come swim with us. Tyler came to swim which is where we met for the first time. I tease him all the time about how he not only met me for the first time, but also my dad, his girlfriend, and her best friend, all at the same time. And look where we are

Tyler knows I’m obsessed with Elephants so he planned a surprise first date. Before we left he asked me to be his girlfriend officially, then he took me to the zoo where we spent the whole day watching animals, taking pictures, feeding giraffes and lorikeets and having the best date ever.

I love her beautiful creative spirit, I love her creativity and how she’s always coming up with new and helpful ideas on how to do things. I also love how she never gives up on me and always help me. She’s a helper.

I love his heart. How big his heart is. He wears his emotions on his sleeve and he’s fiercely protective of his loved ones and animals. Tyler is the kind of guy that would give you the shirt off his back in a heartbeat, if he knew you needed it. Even if it was the last shirt he owned. I’ve never met anyone with a heart bigger than Tyler’s.

We love doing lots of things together! Just to name a few, we love crafting, thrifting, gardening, and we adore working with animals and reptiles. We even started our own reptile business where we rescue, raise, and breed all different kinds of reptiles before finding forever homes for them, if they don’t stay with us.
