Officially, we didn't start talking until three years after Carissa graduated from high school. For those that don't know we both graduated from PBL high school. Carissa worked weekends at Paxton Hardware. Jon would come during his many projects (Jon - a project guy??? you're lying). She thought he was cute, he thought she was cute. We were too scared to say anything of course.

Fast forward to 2018, he planned on moving to Colorado so he sent her a Facebook message. She planned on becoming a traveling surgical tech, so they kept talking to see where things went.

After their travels took them to Colorado and Maine they came back home at the very end of 2019.

Since then we have bought a house, got two kittens, got a puppy, lost a best friend in the form of a cat, spent time with friends, taken up new hobbies, and enjoyed life together. We cannot wait to celebrate those years and the beginning of the years to come. We're SO excited to celebrate this those who can make it, at what has become one of our favorite places.
