We met each other at Messiah in the winter of 2020. Some of our first dates together included visiting puppies, hiking, and watching scary movies.

Our first summer together was one to remember. We still lived 2 hours apart, yet made time to see each other weekly. Every Tuesday we met in Harrisburg which was around halfway and we tried local food. Some of our other favorite dates included biking, working out together, fun crafts, long boarding, coffee shops, camp fires, kayaking, and watching marvel movies.

Some of our favorite memories during our last year of being in college together were studying together and fun nights with our wonderful friends.

Started summer 2022 off right with our first country concert together.

Getting out on the slopes, mostly Madison laughing at Avery falling every hill.

Feeling blessed when we had the opportunity to cruise the most breathtaking landscapes of Alaska. Our favorite trip to date.

Fell in love with fall at the apple harvest festival.

Despite Madison always running in horrendous conditions, Avery is always there to support!

The best day ever, Avery proposed at Shanandoah National Park.

Engagement photos were a blast!

Avery’s first half marathon, Madison’s first time spectating.

We are now training for our first 70.3 Ironman and continuing to grow stronger together.
