Gabi and AJ met at the Professional Motocross National at RedBud MX in Buchannan, MI. RedBud is one of AJ's favorite tracks and he has attended their Pro National event every year since 2013. Gabi was there on a whim with one of her closest friends.
AJ caught Gabi's eye when he pulled up to her neighbor's campsite on a child's Spiderman 4 wheeler. Shortly after the two began talking and it seemed like they had known each other for years! The weekend was filled with laughs, long talks, and of course AJ's favorite dirt bikes.
The two didn't want their weekend to end. So AJ invited Gabi to come and visit him in Illinois. And the rest is history!
AJ planned a surprise weekend getaway to Lake Geneva in Wisconsin. He planned a day doing all of Gabi's favorite things walking along the lake, getting a massage, and of course Starbucks! Before dinner he asked her to take a walk to his Grandparents old pier to watch the sunset.
They sat on the pier watching the sun go down when AJ turned to Gabi and got down on one knee. It was everything they dreamed of and so much more!
