“After meeting Connor Freshman year at Oklahoma State Univeristy we have been togther for now over 6 years! After college we moved to his hometown, Pawhuska, Oklahoma. I was from a nearby small town but we didn’t know each other growing up. We both love our small town life! Taking care of cattle, riding horses or in the roping pen is usually where you’ll find us. If we aren’t out and about you’ll find us circled around his “Gamma’s” kitchen table, every Sunday after Church, but really as often as we can. 
After this bad freeze we had in February 2021, which was super hard on us and our livestock, we had been itching for some good weather and to get the horses legged back up! Saturday Februrary 20th, ironically a day before our 6 year anniversary, was the first day that weather was going to be nice and so it wasn’t abnormal for Connor to ask me to catch a few horses and go cruise through some pastures. He told me after we were done we would head down to the Pioneer Woman’s P-Town Pizza to meet up with his family, again something totally normal for us! So we are riding along, drinking a few beers, listening to music, checking on the calves that were born in freeze. I noticed Connor took our music off of the wide variety of music that was being shuffled and played what we always say is our song “Oh, Tonight” by Josh Abbott Band. I thought that was weird because Connor got super nervous acting, doubled us back on the trail like he didn’t know which direciton to go and then hurried to pick a different song when the song looped! Then “El Paso” by Marty Robbins came on, which isn’t exactly romantic and we went along the way. We came up on a cow skull that had horns on it that we had been meaning to take back to the house and he asked me to get off and get it. When I picked it up and turned around he was down on one knee and said “Will you marry me?” Teary eyed and on cloud 9 (I think) I said YES! We embraced the moment which was so sweet and private and headed back to the house where I was suprised to find approximately 60 of our closest friends family waiting to celebrate with us! Connor originally planned on me picking up a deer shed but got nervous and forgot where it was located which makes the story even better. Haha! Thank goodness the cow skull served as a back up! It really was all perfectly us.
I reached out to Josie England Photography for engagement photos. We wanted these to represent a true picture of us. We had the photos taken on his family’s land where I was proposed to, again horse back, with some good music and a few beers. This time we added our sidekick, Newt, our 3 legged red heeler who has been with us from the beginning. Josie captued us in our most natural state! We were so giddy and felt so in love. The pictures really show that too. We were both a little nervous about pictures but she really did such an incredible job of being the best 3rd wheel and became a friend of ours by the end of it.” – Bride, Taylor.
