As many of you know, Our story began over a decade ago in the classrooms and halls of West Valley High School. Thank you to Mr. Davis for creating the seating chart with him and I right next to each other due to our last names starting with S. It started out as us being best friends hanging out at lunch and during our classes, texting all the time, making each other laugh, going to football games and even going to our sophomore homecoming together. Eventually we knew were growing to be more than friends and I finally said yes to being his girlfriend on March 17th, 2014. Ever since then we have been inseparable and have experienced many things in life.

We graduated high school together, spent two years long distance before moving in and graduating college together. We experienced getting our first fur baby in 2019 and our first big move to Oregon in 2021 where we embraced the adventure and journey that comes with medical school. Sam finally popped the big question on 12/23/2021.

Although we knew planning a wedding would have to be put off for a couple of years due to the impossible schedule of medical school, we have appreciated the time we have had as a part of our long engagement. We have taken the opportunity of living throughout the pacific west coast to explore the beauty that nature has to offer. We love to explore the beaches on the coast of Oregon and California, hiking in the vibrant green forest surrounding Lebanon, and enjoyed all the wineries and breweries we can find.

Together, we have discovered that the best adventures are the ones we have created side by side. And we are more than honored to be joined by our friends and family to help us celebrate our love and our continuous chapters of adventure.
