One of our earliest memories together goes all the way back to high school choir class. In 2015, we were partnered for a project and decided to practice in a quiet room tucked away from the rest of the school. What we didnt realize? The room was soundproof. Isaac brought his guitar (of course), and what started as a quick rehearsal turned into an hour and a half of music, laughter, and getting completely lost in each other’s company.
Before we knew it, the bell had rung, the next class had started, and we were blissfully unaware. Our teacher gave us a hall pass and a knowing smile — and that’s when the rumors started.
People said we liked each other. We just weren’t ready to admit it yet.
One of our most beautiful memories came with the arrival of our son, Brooks. From the moment we found out we were expecting, Isaac stepped into full-on superdad mode — especially when it came to cravings. Whether it was gummy worms at 3am or something oddly specific and hard to find, he never hesitated. He made sure I was taken care of, comfortable, and never without exactly what I wanted to eat. The night our son was born was the most emotional, life-changing experience we’ve ever shared.
Holding him together for the first time - just the three of us — was a moment that made everything before and everything after feel complete.
