Our Wedding

We met the (new) old fashion way -- at the end of 2018! Adam was just finishing the firefighter academy and Sam was newly enrolled in nursing school. Many life changes were happening for both of us, that we finally met in person almost two months later for our first date. Its been an adventure together ever since!From lots of traveling, moving (five times!), purchasing a home, renovating an entire house and now planning a wedding. Not to mention all the memories made with family and friends along the way!! We are excited to see where this life takes us together next!

What a journey it has been...
