Our Wedding

Peter and I first met at a rock climbing gym in Phoenix, AZ. Peter is the “expert” climber and it was my first time climbing so of course he had to show me the ropes and show off his skills! It didn’t hurt that he threw in some dad jokes then took me to Culver’s to really seal the deal and make me want a second date!

Where did we meet?

Since we met, pretty much everything we do together is outdoorsy or active and almost always with Kira and Mia. We love to hike with our two pups, go boating (again with our two pups), wake board, wake surf, snow ski/snowboard, and even run (although I’m pretty sure Peter hates this one). We like to travel and experience new places, and I’ll even let Peter drag me into museums from time to time! Besides doing the active things, we will also game together when we need a relaxing and easy night after work!

What are our favorite things to do together?

Those are our perfect babies/dogs! Kira, the smaller “foxy like” one, I’ve had since I first met Peter. Mia, our big polar bear, we got together in Flagstaff about 5 years ago after I happily talked Peter into getting her! They usually will go anywhere we go when possible and are spoiled beyond belief! They love to go boating and hiking with us but will cuddle you all night long if you’d like! If you ever want to watch two cute pups for a couple days just let us know, but just know they must get returned back to us by the end of our trip!

Who are Kira and Mia?

Yes! We’ve done a lot of US travel to Chicago to visit Peter’s family, to New York to visit my brother, back down to Arizona to visit my family, and also into Utah to visit a lot of national parks with a teardrop trailer! We’ve also been over to Italy for a 2 week vacation last year, to California to go to Disney land to celebrate my little brother graduating high school, and off to Nashville to see Zac Brown Band! I finally got to fly with Peter as my pilot this year. I was able to get on his flight from Denver to Hawaii and back! He had a perfect landing too that everyone was talking about so you know he’s a good pilot!! We hope to travel more both with the pups in the US and then outside the US as well!

Have we done any traveling?
