Our Wedding

Ryan and I met in college and were introduced by mutual friends. We both played college hockey, he at St. Cloud State University and I played at the University of Minnesota - Twin Cities, so from the beginning we had something in common that was a big part of our lives. We hung out here and there but eventually lost touch.

The Beginning…..

We ended up reconnecting some 20 years later in 2021 while I was in San Diego visiting my youngest brother and his wife who were living there at the time and Ryan was living not far in Rosarito, Mexico - part of Mexico’s Baja California peninsula. We had such a good time together that week catching up and enjoying each other’s company, so we decided to give dating a shot. The rest is history!
