Tristen and Kenzi

How We Met

We met in high school back in 2013.

How They Asked

Tristen oil-painted some of our best memories from the last six years together. Then cleared out the living room and hung up a makeshift gallery. It was a surprise when we got home and walked through the paintings; each one had a plaque saying when the memory was and what Tristen loved about it. When we got to the last one— a meta painting of us in this gallery with the plaque reading, “will you marry me?”— Tristen proposed.
