Lexie and Dana met in 2014 while attending the University of Puget Sound—and despite many phases of both long-distance and in-person friendship, have been connected at the hip ever since. The two bond over their careers and learning lessons of the last 12 years - Lexie has an incredible professional drive, deep perseverance/resilience, and an ability to truly show up for her people. Fun fact: Lexie called it back in 2017 that Dana + Sean would end up together (at the time, Dana called her crazy).

Keala and Dana met in 2014 while attending the University of Puget Sound, and have been very close ever since 2015. They both lived in Seattle together since graduating (until Dana & Sean moved to Denver a few months ago), and connect over their curiosity of science, psychology, and many shared memories of the last 12 years. Keala is an incredible chef, baker, dinner host, conversationalist, podcaster, climber, and all-around humble go-getter. Dana & Keala have a long-standing tradition of hiking & brunching together.

Carly and Dana met while attending the University of Puget Sound, and were roommates in the fall of 2016. Their shared time in Seattle post-grad continued to deepen their friendship. They enjoy connecting over STEM/healthcare, shared experiences/values, and memories (mostly outside/active/in nature). A few of the traits Dana admires Carly for are her generosity, kindness and understanding, adventurous nature and ability to find positivity/joy.

As the sister-in-law of the bride, Meg and Dana met about 10 years ago—and Dana is thrilled to have Meg in the family. Dana loves Meg for, among many other qualities, her genuine down-to-earth nature and ability to brighten a room + put others at ease. Fun fact: Meg and Steven’s beautiful daughter, Alice, is the flower girl for this wedding!

Molly and Dana met through a mutual friend right before Covid hit in Seattle. Despite living in different states - and even countries - during the time to follow, the two made an effort to maintain their connection through phone calls and visits. Molly is a caring, thoughtful, intentional friend, inspiring others to get out of their comfort zones, keep an open mind and explore an unfamiliar path.

Hannah and Dana met through gymnastics in 2007—which is how they spent much of their time together throughout middle and high school. They've remained close through phone calls and travel ever since. Hannah is one of those incredible people that can balance an eye for design, organization, intention and planning with goofiness + always finding a good reason to laugh (and still find patience for her scatterbrained friends like Dana). Fun fact: Hannah and Dana both had (some variation of) broken backs and mental blocks over relatively simple skills together throughout most of high school—a bonding experience. To this day, their first question to each other upon catching up is "how's your back?"

Sean has known Austin since age 2, and as neighborhood friends throughout all their years of school growing up, they share many cringe-worthy memories. As one of the smartest guys you'll meet with a dry sense of humor, Austin has since integrated into Sean's college friend group. Austin, Sean, and Dana have played countless rounds of strategy board games together, and the couple is honored to have Austin by their side.

Sean and Teague met through their college fraternity in 2013, and lived together post-grad for almost 6 years in WA. Teague joins Dana & Sean on ski trips, hikes, & backpacking, and shares their love for dogs. Supportive and caring to his friends and most well-known for getting the party started, he is a blast to have around. Fun fact: the first time Teague met Dana (post-grad) was while rescuing her from a broken-down car.

After 4 years of college football, Sean and Reid lived together for another 6. Best known for his sneaky athleticism, unwavering reliability, and a knack for always going out of his way for friends. Fun fact: one of Reid's first days hanging out with the couple, they made him hike 27 miles through the mountains in a storm.

Sean met Luke through football in college 13 years ago, and they lived together post-grad for many years. Known for bar naps, math wizardry, gourmet cooking skills, and conspiracy theories that keep the tinfoil industry booming, Luke is the most loyal friend you'll ever have.

One of Dana's brothers (twin/fellow triplet?), Steven has been one of her biggest supporters and best friends since day one. A first-round pick for loyalty and cheffing up creative ice cream concoctions, Steven can preach T Swift lyrics like gospel. Known to rock high fashion (i.e., the inside-out look and green soccer ball suits) yet still flex the highest IQ in the room. Dana & Sean admire this full ride law school prodigy who chose saving the world over cashing checks, and have loved getting to know his new daughter Alice!

The other of Dana's brothers/twin/fellow triplet, Matt has also been a support system and friend for over 30 years. His dog has a larger wardrobe than he does and has been on more planes than some people have. While his nomadic and entrepreneurial tendencies post-grad have taken him around the world, he's risked being on international hit-lists for family. His mail hasn't found him in years but he will still always be there and show up for the important things - he's proof you don't need a permanent address to be a permanent part of our lives.

3.5 year-old daughter of Dana & Sean, Cassie got most of her personality traits from her mother. Came without a shut-off button for her tail wagging + constant need for an emotional support toy. Known to show every emotion on her face, need to be in the middle of everything at all times, and have irrational fears. Her favorite activities are uphill skiing/snowboarding with her parents, trail running with her mom, playing keep-away with her dog friends, and terrorizing her older sister Maggie. Fun fact: Sean got Cassie as a surprise when Dana was on a trip, and as soon as Dana came back and saw her, she started crying and Cassie immediately started peeing - and the two are still just as excited to see each other.

At 5 years old, Maggie was brought home by Ellen & Pat shortly after Sean & Dana started spending time together - and formed a special bond to Sean since the very first day. As Sean's best friend (but now with a pesky little sister, Cassie, who wants to be just like Maggie when she grows up), Maggie has found herself in a love triangle. The braver, messier, muddier, and more adventurous of the two, Maggie has been known to get Cassie out of her comfort zone and try scary new things (like jumping into cars or over sticks) only when the two are together. From weeks to even months at a time of living with Dana & Sean, and the couple taking her on every outdoor adventure they possibly can, Maggie is a core part of their family.
