Our Journey of Love and Partnership

Our love story is a unique and joyful one that began in the most unexpected of ways—on FarmersOnly, a dating site that matched us despite living an hour apart. Neither of us was actively searching for a relationship, but after encouragement from others, we decided to give it a try. From our very first conversation, it was clear we shared a surprising number of similarities, despite coming from different backgrounds. We connected instantly, bonding over our shared values, sense of humor, and love for family. What started as text exchanges quickly turned into in-person dates, where we discovered even more reasons to admire and love one another.

Haley was drawn to Garrick’s sense of humor, strong work ethic, and the way he treats everyone around him with kindness and respect, particularly the women in his family. Garrick was immediately captivated by Haley’s dimples, warm smile, and her ability to make any situation brighter. On our first date, Haley’s brother tagged along for safety, and Garrick’s understanding of this showed his caring nature. Over time, our love deepened, and just a month into dating, we both realized we wanted to spend our lives together. While Garrick’s proposal was understated—over BBQ at a local restaurant—it was heartfelt and meaningful, perfectly capturing the simplicity and authenticity of our relationship.

We were married in June 2019 in a small, intimate ceremony that reflected our personalities. From Garrick wearing a kilt in his family’s tartan to Haley’s laid-back approach, the day was a celebration of love and family. Since then, we’ve built a life together centered on faith, family, and shared adventures. Whether it’s traveling, enjoying a quiet evening at home, or raising our two beautiful children, we are partners in every sense of the word. Our relationship is rooted in mutual respect, open communication, and a shared commitment to creating a home filled with love and laughter.

Our Family

Our family values traditions that bring everyone together. We celebrate holidays with loved ones, like Thanksgiving dinners filled with laughter and games, and Christmas mornings with stockings, gifts, and family outings. Easter and the Fourth of July are marked by church gatherings, egg hunts, and fireworks. Birthdays are fun-filled with activities like zoo trips or family visits. These traditions create lasting memories of love, connection, and the joy of being surrounded by family.

Our Home

Where Love and Laughter Fill Every Corner

Our home is a warm and welcoming place where love and laughter thrive. Built in 1978, it has three oversized bedrooms and two bathrooms, offering plenty of room for our growing family. The large living room is the heart of our home, filled with toys, games, and moments of togetherness. From bedtime stories to family meals around the table, our home is where we create meaningful connections and shared memories every day.

Outside, we have over an acre of land for the kids to run, play, and explore. The backyard features multiple types of swings that the kids love, along with plenty of open space to roam and enjoy nature. We also maintain a garden where we grow fruits and vegetables, teaching the kids about nature and the satisfaction of nurturing something to life. Whether it’s playing hide-and-seek, picking flowers, or enjoying the fresh air, our outdoor space is a place of endless discovery and fun.

Our neighborhood is a peaceful, family-oriented community just outside the city limits. The homes are well-kept and surrounded by friendly neighbors who look out for one another. While we enjoy the quiet of our location, we’re only a short drive away from parks, playgrounds, a library with kid-friendly programs, and community events like holiday festivals and farmer’s markets. The nearby school district is highly regarded, ensuring that your child will have access to excellent education and opportunities.

This is the environment where your child would grow up—a home filled with love and learning, a yard full of adventures, and a community that provides support and connection. It’s a place where they can thrive, discover their passions, and build a lifetime of cherished memories.
