It all began at the beginning of the pandemic, when we connected at a distance through social media. Because of quarantine, we talked everyday for 43 days before being able to go on our first date. From there we got to know each other more date by date, realizing how similar we are and how much we truly enjoyed spending our time together. This all led to years of love full of adventuring across the country, biking, camping, hiking, cooking, dancing, skiing, kayaking, antiquing, and the pet parenting of our two cats and dog <3

Our first cat is Malibu (Mali) on the left, I adopted her the day Andrew and I started dating. Next, we adopted our dog Bethany during Andrew's last semester in school at Bethany College. Finally, we adopted our cat Zion on the left. We came across him in a pet store, and we had recently gotten back from our trip to Zion National Park, his name was already Zion so we could not pass him up. <3
