Kyle
and
Danie

Kyle and Danie first met in 2020, but they should have met earlier due to Danie’s sister, Amber, dating his close friend, Gavin. Thankfully, they did not meet in the twenty-tens, because they have both acknowledged it would have been a disaster. You see, for many years Kyle did not believe in love and Danie was a hopeless romantic. While that was still the case when they met again the night before Kyle’s birthday in 2021, age had made them softer and wiser. They greeted each other and did not stop talking until the next day, when they celebrated his birthday together, unaware then that they’d be celebrating their birthdays together for the rest of their lives.

At first Gavin and Amber were understandably wary of the repercussions of this flirtation, but Danie and Kyle surprised everyone, including themselves, by gently challenging each other and growing together. They knew from their time around the block that what they had was a rare thing and should be treated as such.

Kyle proposed to Danie in a cabin in the middle of nowhere Colorado after he finished setting the fire for them to enjoy their morning coffee while overlooking the mountains. They then went on to meet their friends and family in Telluride to celebrate. It was perfect.

This year they welcomed a kitten named Daphne into their new family, who Danie insisted on getting because she was born on her mother’s birthday. It is hard to say who will cave first in regards to a second kitten, so stay tuned.
