Our Wedding

They met at work. Josh and Amanda were both working at a coal mine at the time they met. Josh was an underground coal miner and Amanda worked in the guard shack at the entrance of the mine. One day as Josh was leaving work, he asked Amanda if she would be interested in going on a date with him. Of course, she said yes. Their first date was at Applebee's and then they saw Big Hero 6. Like a gentleman, Josh asked for a kiss before the end of the date. Their first date was on March 19th of 2015.

How It Started

Since their first date, they've went on many trips as a couple and made some great memories. They've been to many places together like Yellowstone National Park, Badlands National Park, Smokey Mountains National park, Myrtle Beach, Virginia Beach, Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, Mt. Rushmore, and many more! They enjoy traveling with each other, having a good time, and experiencing new things. They have 2 dogs Ruby a German Shepard and Kane a Siberian Husky that make great travel companions. Josh proposed to Amanda in Acadia National Park on top of Cadillac Mountain in September of 2021.
