Carlos and Theresa met in the Army in 2014 and spent 8 years jumping out of perfectly good air frames together. They forged a strong friendship through their shared experiences, motivating each other to achieve their goals and offering support on difficult days. Their relationship was built on a foundation of respect, admiration, and love.

They began dating in 2017 and embarked on their first trip to Catalina Island. Four years later, Carlos proposed to Theresa at the same location where they shared their first adventure.

In April 2018, Carlos and Theresa welcomed their first fur baby, Ellie, followed by the adoption of their second fur baby, Maya, in December 2019. Ellie and Maya brought countless happy memories and moments of joy, enriching their lives.

Their first date involved a six-mile ruck march on Coronado Beach, followed by enjoying a six-pack of beer and feasting on lobster caught by Carlos himself the night before. While unconventional, it was the perfect date for them.

On April 24, 2021, Carlos proposed to Theresa at Catalina Island's Lovers Beach under the enchanting moonlight, creating a peaceful and memorable evening filled with love and laughter.

Their wedding, originally planned for April 2023, was postponed when Theresa became pregnant. On July 18, 2023, they welcomed their son, Jayce Carlitos De La Villa, into the world, expanding their family and bringing even more love and joy into their lives.

This is their happily ever after.
