How did you two meet?
Weston: "Anna and I have really known each other for most of our lives. She was my sister’s best friend since elementary school, and we’d see each other all of the time. I always considered her an extension of our family. I remember one time, when we were in high school, I was out in my front yard with Anna, and my sister, Elisabeth, helping them practice for their powderpuff game. Anna and I ended up colliding when were throwing the football around, and I thought she had a concussion. She was super tough about it though!"

Anna: "I have known Weston for quite some time. I was his sister Elisabeth’s best friend since elementary school. I would go over to their house growing up and went on some of their family beach trips too as 'Elisabeth and Sarah’s friend'-- haha! I always saw Weston as Elisabeth’s big brother and just always thought how crazy talented he was! He was an outstanding athlete who also was very musically talented too. He sang, played the piano by ear and was the lead of our high school plays. I remember growing up and hearing Elisabeth share all the funny 'Weston stories.' Never would have dreamed he would be my husband one day!"

How and when did Weston propose?
Weston: "I proposed at the beach when we were on a trip with her family. One of my sisters kept people away from the dock on the bay, and I told Anna that we were walking to dinner. I proposed on the dock and our families and friends were waiting for us at the beach house when we got back. I think she had no clue until we started walking on the dock and not towards the 'restaurant.'"

Anna: "Weston proposed on July 26, 2019. We were at the beach with my family for the weekend. It was Friday night, our first night at the beach, and we had planned on all going to dinner. The restaurant we had a 'reservation' at was near the beach house, so we ended up walking to dinner. We were on our way to dinner, and Weston wanted to stop by the dock that overlooked the bay. It all came to me, and I could not believe what was happening. Weston handed me a letter he had written and before I knew it he was down on one knee asking me to marry him. It was such a surreal feeling I had never felt before-- truly a dream. The funny part was that Weston’s sweet sister, Sarah, had been hiding in the bushes and had gotten four random young boys on bikes to keep a watch out so people would not walk on the dock. Right after Weston proposed, I remember hearing 'congratulations!!' being yelled from the bushes and it was the four middle school-aged boys! It was hilarious. We enjoyed time on the dock ourselves with the pretty sunset after he proposed. My sister-in-law, MaryBlan, and Sarah took pictures and then we headed back to the beach house. Both of our families had surprised us with a celebration. It was the best night and I wish I could relive it over and over again!!"

What are some things y’all like to do together?
Weston: "We are definitely ok with just hanging out at the house together, but we love movies – at the theater or at the house. We also really enjoy traveling (whenever we get the chance to). One of our favorite places is New Orleans. The last time we were there, we ate at the classic New Orleans restaurants and had the best time. Our favorite time of the year is Christmas and we go to as many cheesy light shows or Christmas plays as we can. We’ll also go on walks or go fishing on weekends."

Anna: "We love traveling and also love eating good food. Dining at a nice restaurant with Weston is one of my favorite things! Weston and I also love any kind of holiday, especially Christmas. From Christmas trees, to light shows, to fires, to Christmas movies and musicals – we love it all! Weston loves the outdoors, so I enjoy tagging along with him when he goes fishing or hunting. He gets so excited when I catch a fish and it makes me so happy!"

Anna -- describe Weston in three words.
Anna: "Weston is loyal, selfless, patient."
