As you may or may not know, Dustin and Marie had a very serious relationship at the start of freshman year of high school where you also may have seen them romantically holding hands around WA's track during a football game. Somehow, that didn't last, but they were never too far apart after.

Flash forward to junior year of college when at a joint birthday dinner for both of our sisters, Kayla T and Marie figured out that Dustin and Marie would be studying abroad together in New Zealand. They called Dustin in the middle of a white out Penn State game, and learned they were even in the same dorm, which Dustin didn't want to be in and swapped out of (lame).

As EVERYONE knows by this point, they loved New Zealand and became close friends throughout this time. When they got home and were missing our outdoors time and friends from abroad, they would go hiking throughout New Hampshire, chipping away at hiking all of the 4000ft mountains in the state. After a year or two of this, and a trip out West, hiking trips turned to real dates.

Another 4.5 years later, they have built their lives together, with a beautiful, little home they're still trying to decorate, and a wedding to plan!
