WE'RE GETTING MARRIED!

Though neither of them knew it at the time, the lives of Amy and Asher would change at the very start of 2014. On a cold evening in January, the two decided to meet for dinner at Peking Toyko, an Asian-fusion restaurant in Lebanon, NH. Wanting to be prompt, (but, of course, not wanting to seem too eager!), Asher texted Amy before walking into the restaurant. When Amy replied she had just arrived, Asher anxiously approached the host's podium. To find no one in sight. Even after the host allowed him to scan the seating area, Amy was nowhere to be found. This prompted the host to laugh hysterically, repeating the phrase, "She lied to you!" between his enthusiastic guffaws. Just as Asher was beginning to wonder if he had wandered onto a hidden-camera TV show, Amy entered the restaurant, having come from the second floor of the building. Though it had started like an episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm, the first date turned out to be the best either had even been on. Over sushi and a shared scorpion bowl, the two stayed at their table until close. From there, a series of awesome dates led to a road trip to none other than Omaha, Nebraska. This trip would serve as the first of several excursions over the years, as travel quickly became one of their strongest shared passions. To date, Amy and Asher have traveled together to over 30 states, visited 40 National Parks, Monuments, Historic Sites, Battlefields, etc., set foot on the southernmost and easternmost points in the nation, and seen such exotic sites like the world's largest truck stop, world's largest drug store, world's largest indoor desert, and the world's largest drive-thru tree…just to name a few! Upon meeting and moving in together, Amy and Asher have shared milestone after milestone, proving they are indeed each other's lucky charms. In the time they have been together, Amy has earned not one, but three college degrees, and Asher saw the publication of his first book…and two more since.
