It all started at Pure Taqueria, where the margaritas were strong, the food was amazing, and the banter was even better. From the very first conversation, we both thought, “Okay, this person is going to be a great friend.” Famous last words, right?

We hit it off instantly—talking for hours (and we mean hours). Nights turned into mornings as we swapped stories, laughed until our cheeks hurt, and slowly realized that maybe this wasn’t just a friendship after all. Before we knew it, we were spending all our time together—and loving every second of it.

Our first trip was to the casino & Gatlinburg, TN and it proved that we travel incredibly well together and we have the best time wherever we are as long as we are together. From there, adventures became our thing to cruises, yearly New York adventures, We’ve skied in Montana, explored new places, and found that no matter where we go, it just feels right when we’re together.

Fast forward to New Hampshire 2025, standing on the ski slopes while waiting for the ski patrol. Before heading down the mountain, he wanted to take a picture, not thinking about him getting down on one knee, I wanted to keep on my helmet and skis. Thankfully he talked me out of that, got down on one knee and asked if id continue our adventures together for a lifetime and I said yes! I couldn’t stop smiling, thinking how lucky I am to spend forever with my best friend, adventure partner, and the one person who can always make me laugh—no matter what mountain we’re on next.
