Our Story
How We Met
We met in high school. Tanis first met Jack when he approached her friend's lunch table to crack some jokes and make conversation. Tanis of course was having none of this. About 1 year later at a mutual friend's birthday party we met again. Since that day, we have been each other's best friends.
The Proposal
We had been planning a tent camping trip to Ohiopyle, PA for a few months. The day September 15th, 2023 came. We started the day by Tanis making breakfast in the Dutch oven over the campfire. We then planned on going on a hike to Baughman Rock Overlook. It was a long hike, so we packed our water, beef jerky, and granola bars (Jack also grabbed the ring box). On our hike Tanis led the way catching all the spider webs along the way with a stick found on the trail. Jack was trailing behind with his one hand in his pocket because he was unsure when we would get to the overlook. Then we finally get to the top we stop to take in the view and eat our snacks. Before we turn around to head back down the trail Jack turns and says why don't we take one more picture and Tanis gets her phone out to snap some additional pictures. Jack then pops the questions (finally after 12 years).
