Our first trip together (Quebec) !

Homecoming freshman year of high school

We froze our a**es off in NYC

Gave THE Carnegie Hall performance of a lifetime

Went to Cedar Point and rode Top Thrill (RIP)

Did some child labor (had to pay for those swim team sandwiches somehow)

Swam a LOT

Mohawk Noah asked Marisa to prom

Marisa said yes

The dynamic duo became swim team captains

We went to senior prom together

High school graduation? More like BYE school graduation

Marisa started school at Miami University (and met a fabulous friend), and Noah stayed in Delaware to study at Ohio Wesleyan

Queue our distance relationship era - not gonna lie, it was very hard at first

But we got the hang of it :)

We saw one of our favorite bands (Car Seat Headrest)

Noah tried to kill Marisa (and failed, fortunately)

Covid hit (as did Marisa's barber arc)

And even though the world was in shambles, we were still able to have a little fun

We started learning how to cook and bake

Marisa graduated from Miami! Bye-bye long distance relationship :)

We moved into our first apartment together

We went on our first solo trip of many (we have way too many travel photos from the last few years to add here, so if you'd like to see more, you can check out Marisa's Instagram @marisaa_faye)

We added another member to our little family

Marisa started her master's program (and Paya helped her study)

We moved into our first house together

We had a gazebo moment in Coshocton, OH

Marisa graduated AGAIN (for the last time, hopefully)

We went to Japan!

We went hiking in Montana and Noah proposed!

A kind lady reached the summit long after us and offered to take our picture with the pretty background (she had no idea we had just gotten engaged)

And now we're planning a party to celebrate with all the people who have loved and supported us along the way! We appreciate you more than you know, and we are so excited to see you!
