Our Story
Our story began with the help of a friend, and it developed in a way that can only be credited to God bringing two people together at just the right time.
It was in February of 2025 that we first met - at the birthday party of Becca (Amstutz at the time) Parks. But it wasn’t until July of that year that we saw each other again. Girl met guy. Girl heard guy had a 3D printer. Girl’s friend set up a time to go look at guy’s 3D printer.
There are a lot of mushy moments between that visit and now, but here are some highlights:
One of their favorite things is reading Dr. Seuss books together. Nicole tackles the tongue twisters, and Andy is impressed by her talent to tackle tongue twisters. They’ve been on a scavenger hunt for used Dr. Seuss books, but have found most of the easy-to-find ones.
The first time Nicole went to church as Andy’s girlfriend, everyone’s eyes went immediately to their hands. They haven’t stopped holding hands since.
When one yawns, the other yawns.
They found out they liked the same flower - flower-of-an-hour - Nicole liked to look at the flower; Andy liked to play with the seed pod.
They both have the perfect puppy (Olenna & Petra). Just don’t tell the other one.
Stargazing was a favorite pastime long before they met, and they were actually stargazing and watching a lunar eclipse when Andy proposed to Nicole.
