Our story begins sitting in a Big Bend Community College Philosophy class in Moses Lake, Washington. After a month of talking and flirting, we finally went on a date at the local bowling alley. Since that first date at TenPin, we have been together for over four years.

We moved in together in late December 2021 while at Central Washington University. In the two years since that date, we have lived in three different apartments with our current living place in Puyallup, Washington.

After graduation, we left Central with our Bachelor's in Teaching and headed over the mountains. Tyler has a teaching position in Orting at the high school as a Freshman and Sophomore Math teacher. Dakota has a teaching position in Tacoma at Franklin Pierce High School as a Freshman English Teacher.

Our first addition to our new family is our cat Agatha Christie, who we adopted in early October of 2023. She is a beautiful orange and white domestic shorthair, she looks like a creamsicle.

Below are some of our photos throughout our time together
